Who earns the most from the "Dust Four"? Wade 200 million, James 530 million, see Paul I served
Although the "Dust Four" are brothers and sisters, their careers are very different, James has a historical status of two and one, Wade has three crowns and is known as the shooting guard second only to Joko. In contrast, Paul and Anthony, although they were once the league's top superstars, have never set foot on the Finals stage and are much inferior in terms of individual honors. So, let's take a look at what the total salary of the Dust Four's career is.
James: $532 million
James' ability to attract money goes without saying, and being the NBA's highest-paid player for eight consecutive years speaks for itself. Since joining the league in 2003, James has signed a total of 9 contracts with a total of $532 million, ranking first in history. In the next two seasons, the nearly 40-year-old James will earn $46.7 million and $50.43 million a year, respectively.
Wade: $199 million
Peak Wade was the only shooting guard in the league who could compete with Kobe Bryant, his style of play was fierce and very watching, he led the Heat to win three championships, and the Finals in '06 staged a shocking miracle of 0-2 down. However, as the first person in the history of the Heat, Wade has never received a top salary in his entire career, and even took the initiative to reduce his salary many times to help the team recruit, and the total salary in his career is only $199 million, less than half of James.
Anthony: $260 million
In terms of singles ability alone, Anthony is undoubtedly the leader of this era, whether it is three-pointer, mid-range shooting, back play is proficient, so it is also known as the "offensive kaleidoscope" by countless fans. Although Anthony has never tasted a championship in his 20-year career, the total salary of $260 million in his career is enough to make him a winner in life.
Paul: $420 million
From a certain point of view, Paul's career is extremely pathetic, once ridiculed in his early years for not being able to touch the "West Final floor", in '18 he was defeated 2-3 by the Warriors with a hamstring strain and missed the Finals, and in '21 he was played four consecutive games by the Bucks when he led 2-0 in the Finals. But when you look at Paul's career total salary, you won't feel pitiful for him, and since entering the league in 05, he has signed 3 contracts worth 300 million yuan, with a total amount of $420 million, ranking fifth in history, and the first four are Janduku and Lillard.
