Ever since James Harden left the Thunder, he had been a frequent face in front of cameras. Not only did he lead the Rockets to multiple deep playoff runs, but he also bagged several individual accolades as well. As a result, he is currently a crucial part of the Nets’ dangerous trio.

Harden was just a third option on OKC, but with the Rockets, he developed into an MVP. The only thing that Harden was missing from his resume was an NBA Championship.

Following his success in the league, Harden has managed to land huge contracts both on and off the court. Let’s have a look at where the Nets superstar makes his money from.
