The Golden State Warriors stunned the league when they traded Jonathan Kuminga and Buddy Hield to the Atlanta Hawks in exchange for NBA veteran Kristaps Porzingis on trade deadline day in February. The Latvian started in just 12 games for the Hawks before joining the Dubs, who are pushing hard for a playoff spot in April. Porzingis has spent more than a decade in the American basketball league, playing for six organizations and winning the NBA Championship in 2024 with the Boston Celtics. Here’s a detailed breakdown of Kristaps Porzingis’ net worth in 2026, his NBA contract with the Warriors, career salary earnings, and top brand endorsement deals.

What is Kristaps Porzingis’ Net Worth?

As per Celebrity Net Worth, Kristaps Porzingis net worth is placed at $30 million. The European has been in the league since he was 20. He was drafted by the New York Knicks in 2015 (4th overall). Since then, Porzingis has gone on to establish himself as a unique hooper who offers elite rim protection as a center but also provides a significant scoring threat, earning himself the nickname ‘The Unicorn’.

The $30 million net worth is likely outdated, given Porzingis’s career earnings. In 2026, as per Spotrac, conservative estimates place his overall career earnings at $235,247,782. This brings his net worth to anywhere between $100-$110 million. During his time in New York, Porzingis signed multiple endorsement deals with Adidas, BodyArmor, and Delta Airlines, among others. Over the course of his career, Porzingis became one of the NBA’s most marketable players.
