Adidas offered Harden a massive $200 million for 13 years to lure him away from their rivals, Nike. Endorsements such as these and his massive salary make him one of the richest NBA stars.

After his signing with Adidas, Green joined the likes of Harden, Damian Lillard and Candace Parker, among others who are signed with Adidas.
