The current situation of the NBA dust four at a glance:
Wade: Retired businessman + jazz small boss
Melon: Still trying to find a chance to return to the NBA arena
Paul: There are still three years left on a $90 million contract
James: I still have three years and $150 million on my contract
Wade was the first player in the Dust Four to retire from the NBA, and retired almost 6 years earlier than James and Paul. He chose to retire in 2019 and is currently the small owner of the Jazz, and he will also participate in some basketball-related talk shows and engage in some commercial activities. However, seeing that Paul and James can still get such a lucrative contract, I believe Wade will still drool, after all, no one will be too much money. Wade's career highest annual salary, which was more than $23 million during the Bulls period, was a top salary contract at the time, but it was far from the current top salary.
Melon is still looking for a chance to return to the NBA, and Melon's total salary is higher than Wade's, but Anthony has had few hard accolades throughout his career other than one scoring champion. For Melon, the biggest regret is nothing more than a championship trophy and a career total of 30,000 points club. At present, melon is only 1711 points away from 30,000 points, but it is very difficult to complete this at the moment. Before 2018, Anthony's total salary was higher than James's. But since 2019, the two have begun to distance themselves from their previous incomes. In terms of on-court salary alone, James has $40 million more than Anthony a year.
Paul reached a one-point, four-year, $130 million contract with the Suns last offseason and reclaimed the assist title last year. So far this year, the Suns have also had a very good record and remain one of the favourites. Including this season, his contract has three years to go.
James reached a two-year, $97.13 million contract with the Lakers this offseason, which extended his contract to 2025. Counting this year, he also has 3 years left on his contract, I wonder if James and Paul will choose to retire from the NBA stage in the same season?
So which player do you like the most among the Dust Four? Welcome to the comments section.
