NBA players have had a long history of humongous net worths. Many NBA players have spent millions of dollars to live their dream life. When their talents are rated in terms of big money, players generally live a lavish life. Supporting their families, following their hobbies, and creating a collection of expensive things they love. One such star living an unbelievably luxurious life is a player from the team of Michael Jordan, LaMelo Ball.

LaMelo made his debut in the NBA in 2020. In 2021, the Charlotte Hornets offered their young star a supermax deal. This meant that he is to earn over $150 million over the course of his contract with the Hornets in the coming years. Only at 20, LaMelo is worth around $20 million.
