A fourth active NBA player has been tipped to join the exclusive club of stars whose court earnings surpass $500 million.

In August, Golden State Warriors sensation Steph Curry penned a one-year, $62.6 million extension which will see him join both LeBron James and Kevin Durant in earning half a billion dollars in salary.

He is guaranteed $178 million over the next three seasons with the Warriors, taking his NBA pay packet to $526
million.

The 34-year-old’s earnings are already past $300 million but his latest deal with the 76ers, is worth $211,584,940 and will see him join Curry, James and Durant raking in big bucks.

The figures are merely for wages as with various endorsements factored in, the trio will have earned more than $1 billion in overall earnings.
But as per LA times, there is another pending entrant to the club. Philadelphia 76ers small forward Paul George signed a lucrative deal in July ahead of the new season, after opting out of his player option in the $48.7 million contract with the Los Angeles Clippers.
