3. Shaquille O’Neal – Net Worth $350m
Beginning his career in 1992 with Orlando Magic, Shaq became a particularly imposing figure in the NBA. He’s also the only player on this list to record and release 4 rap albums. Pretty impressive.
His advertising deals include Reebok, Pepsi and Nestle Crunch. He also keenly invested in stocks during the 90s, owning stakes in companies like General Electric, Apple and PepsiCo.
He also invests in esports and has even tried his hand at wrestling and MMA fighting, boosting him close to the top of the richest NBA players list.
