Having been drafted in 2003, LeBron James has already established his place as one of the greatest of all times. Of course, his many endorsements and contracts have earned him tremendous wealth, some of it a result of his own investments and companies. The 37-year-old icon has remained consistent while in the NBA, which also holds true for his steadily increasing net worth.

Interestingly, James’ worth was around $11 million when he started out. However, as his contracts and wealth have grown, his net worth has also adjusted itself. One can only expect more for the four-time NBA Champion, who might have a few good seasons left in him before he retires.

Has LeBron James’ net worth increased in 2021?

In 2020, LeBron’s net worth as per Celebrity Net Worth was worth $500 million. Even in 2021, James’ worth remained the same. The constant number is not a bad number in any way, especially as the pandemic continued into 2021. The Lakers icon continues to make smart investments, while also managing his many business ventures.
