In a recent reveal, the NBA released the salaries of all the NBA stars. The list includes the cash rankings according to which the NBA players are set to earn next season. The highest-paid NBA star is set to be one of the all-time greats Stephen Curry as he was for this season. Noticeably, James Harden is at second on the list and surprisingly, John Wall will also earn the same as Harden. Whereas the man in form Jimmy Butler, is set to earn 10 million less than John Wall.

Wall is set to earn a massive sum of $47,366,760. Whereas Butler will be earning $37,633,050. Butler is 15th on that list. What is surprising here is that Wall has not played for the whole season. In the last three seasons, he has only played 40 games and missed two seasons due to different, multiple injuries.

Wall is the all-time leader in blocked shots among players 6’3″ or under. Wall is certainly someone who is one of those players who is highly rated and the league knows his value and danger.

The Houston Rockets brought in John Wall after a fine season with the Washington Wizards. He averaged over 20 points in the 2018-19 season. But the next season he missed game time for the Houston Rockets as he sustained multiple long-term injuries.

Houston fans could only enjoy Wall for 40 games in the next season. In those 40 games, he showed his class and showed glimpses of the worth of his high payroll. The Rockets currently do not have him in their plans, which resulted in him missing the whole of the 2021-22 season. On the other hand, the player on 15th in the list of highest-paid NBA players for the 2022-23 season is having the time of his life.

Jimmy Butler is in supreme form for the Miami Heat

The 32-year-old Jimmy ‘Buckets’ is having one of the best seasons of his career. He missed some game time in the regular season. But he was one of the protagonists of the Miami Heat’s tremendous form. They ended the regular season as the first seed and the whole team contributed in an absolutely amazing fashion.
