Why NBA Players Are The Highest Paid Athletes
I came into this thinking “no way” but after watching the video and making note of all the research it makes complete sense.
He clearly means avarage
Andddddddd he’s also only talking about money made from the league not the money they make from ads or other revenue sources
@@ot-xx6il I mean there’s ads in every sport tho so it’s hard to compare them
@@ot-xx6il the difference between them as well, is they get huge sneaker deals, it’s almost like making 2 salaries. An average nba player can earn well over 100+ million in just salaries
@@saidufofanah2210 LEBRON made 300 million in his entire career.
JOKIC is going to make 270 in just 4 or 5 seasons.
Congrats on 300k you guys definitely deserve it
They grow so fast bro
They actually do, but compared to the global viewership of a sport like soccer, the nba still falls short, that's why you see player like Ronaldo and Messi make 45 million pounds just from their salary alone, and Messi is making upwards of 108.2 million pounds this year. On top of this, they have their endorsements which make them rise well above a 100 million
He's talking about on average. Even the worst NBA player can make around 7 million a year. No other sport pays their worst players that much. Imagine someone who doesn't even get in the game making around 7 million.
That's 2 guys.
Theirs no salary cap in soccer
@@tyler-hp7oq the NBA minimum salary is $995,000.
@@tyler-hp7oq football is not about 5 player its about 11 player
That's why nba average paid for player is more than average football player
Like quatar is richer than America as per person income
But when it comes about total revenue it wasn't even close to usa
This is gonna be a good vid!
It's hilarious when we read the comments that people keep bringing up Messi and Ronaldo. The key word here is average. Yes, Ronaldo and Messi make far more than any other athletes but when you look at the average salary in those leagues NBA players make more. It's not a difficult concept
It would make sense based on sheer numbers. The NBA does have the smallest roster compared to other major team sports, and the league makes hella money, so there is more money to go around
Not just that NBA players are big monster in endorsement too
NBA Players are more Cultural Icon than these American sports league
Unlike in Football where Bundesliga, La Liga and Premier League competes for the best football league in the World
The Best Basketball Players in the World are playing in the NBA
We can also consider the fact that MLB has a complete farm system where their rookies are. So while the 40 man roster dictates the numbers to be considered for the salary cap, there is another $5 million or so that they set aside for the farm teams (with each team having their own staff plus more personnel needed for scouting). The NBA has the G league, but I believe it is only recently when all the NBA teams owned their own G-League team. Some teams even shared one D-League (as it was called back then) like the Idaho Stampede before it was purchased by the Utah Jazz.
Congrats on 300k my man you deserved it
Edit:Yay you hearted my comment
Sorry bro:( i know what it feels like losing you're heart comment because you edited it:( it also happened to me
Not to many athletes can get to the NBA, it's the most difficult to get in, only the best of the best, not like other sports that have over 30 guys in their roster, maybe that's why and in America the most famous athletes are from NBA, not American football or baseball
Great vid, all time research. Props.
Great video by the numbers! Congrats on 300,000 subscribers!!! 🥳
Great to see NBA stars be well payed and take care, the players association is the key behind protecting players from being underpaid by their bosses 👏
Love to see it. Basketball the best sport in the world.
No one cares about it specialy outside from usa
Hate from india😂
Definitely isn’t the best sport world that goes to football the worlds most loved and played sport by a country mile but u less the comment was your opinion than I will respect it
Football: speed
American Football: strength
Baseball: precision
Voleyball: vertical jump
Hockey: durability
Basketball: all of the above
You need all this too in football
you kinda need these in other sports as well. like in American football you can't just have strength, you'd fail
or in baseball you also need speed
@@imthegoat3195 the point is basketball is the most rewarding if you have all
@@St3. yeah true
Basketball isn't the most popular but still earns more than soccer
Again roster size. Not to mention the Premier League clubs have more teams under them from the youth teams to thr under 23s.
Also, It's unfaor to just include the premier league in soccer. As unlike thr major american sports, there are 3 or 4 more leagues that are on the same level as the premier league.
Funfact: The 3 highest paid soccer players aren't in the premier league.
He is talking about leagues. So he is just counting the prem for rn
@@jeromeclemente3672 he talking premier league coz is the highest average salary league in ⚽️
Only football is more popular than Basketball around the World, Messi and Ronaldo ofc are way more popular but Basketball has Lebron and Curry, they are also popular world wide but there is no comparison because football is way popular but basketball is the second who has more known athletes
@@exa0247your kidding right? Bro dosnt even watch foot ball. Ronaldo, Messi, Neymar, halland, Mbappe, zaltan and legends like pele, maradona I can go on and on.😂 the world is bigger than America my man. Neymar alone if far more famous then gannis, lebron and curry put together.
2:40 dreams = crushed
*Congratz on 300k ... We think we deserve it too, we just haven't been discovered yet* (:
Literally stole their logo lmfaoooo
@@ibk2205 stole is a very strong word 😂🤣😂 But Non Stop Sports is my Uncle, so why not follow the best 😏.. Our edit is similar too 🙂
Nonstop sports: why nba players make so much money
Football fans: BuT MeSsi
Because the NBA is the best sport
The NBA isn't even a sport
@@jakob9614 😂😂😂😂😂

continue grinding, man.
Don’t stop because your hear that keep working !
You have to outwork them all! then you can make it 💪🏾
keep you head up
You need to beat the odds
i understand now in america. but in the world.. nah nah nah. not even close to RONALDO and Messi
On average NBA players make the most in the world. The league minimum is like 1 million dollars. Compare that to the minimum in soccer and it's not even close.
And there's Lionel Messi who earns nearly 150 million dollar just from FC Barcelona every year.
Fr I love Messi, but I think that's too much money. Some people say he deserves every penny because of what he has done for Barcelona but still no athletes should be earning this kind of money.
@@binnifrancis9980 i get that what they spend on messi isnt wasted since they get it back in jersey sales alone, but the fact that he demands a better contract with even more money every year by blackmailing them with his departure is really not cool in my books. and when there are people out there who put him on the same level in terms of loyalty as totti for roma i get really sick.
@@binnifrancis9980 yes, their debt would be even worse if they didnt have messi, but their debt would be much less if messi really loved the club and wouldnt demand the huge amount of money to try and help his club. in liverpool for example many players accepted a smaller salary because of covid 19 since the club would have had to release staff. thats real loyalty.
what messi does is like milking a cow to death and then getting praised for saving the cow in the first place when it was a child, that just isnt right
@@binnifrancis9980 you too bro
You have to know that Messi generates triple the revenue of his salary.
He is the reason Barca earns this much on his name
Ke'esh Mitchell WILL BE A TOP NAME OVERSEAS. NOT CAPPING.
Why is the NBA highest paid? Simple, thank you Michael Jordan!!!
Mj fast tracked it, bird and magic made it national, Jordan took it global, and its never looked back in terms of revenue. When non all star players can make well over 150+ million in their career with very little damage to the body, it’s a hell of a sport to play if you can make it professionally. Oh and Jordan also made shoe deals possible the way they are today.
Congrats on 300k 🎉
Congrats on 300 k
Bruh there’s a 1 in 4,000 chance to make the nhl and didn’t get me started on being a first liner or starting goalie. (Or 0.025 JUST to make it one game)

Nice vids!
In general you r right but leo messi's sallary is greater than lebron, brady and ronaldo combined.672 mil(4 years)
Congratz on 300kd
basically, its less players, thats why.
Plus they are by far the most competitive league in their sport, while in football (european) there are 4 different leagues that are almost equally competitive.
Not to mention that the 3 highest paid players doesn't play in the Premier League. So that average shoud be a bit higher.
@@jeromeclemente3672 ye
PL players 500 NBA 450 players not that much less
@@salaji8987 but there is no other league to compete with nba in sport that is basketball,while in soccer/football there are top 4 leagues that are in competition with each other: namely premier league,la liga,bundesliga,seri a,cause of that audience attention and revenue gets divided
Yea, I don't think many grasp how many people make a living from football.
4 professional leagues in England.
2 in many other countries.
And almost always at least 1 in, well, nearly every country on the planet.
It's easy to say you earn the most if you just don't bother to actually pay 19 year olds being developed.
Maybe on average they make more but if you compare superstars money they come nowhere near ronaldo or messi
Messi makes like 130 million a year. I swear lebron makes like 40
Messi 71 million and Lebron almost 40 million not counting the endorsements of course.
Messi made 170 millions per year...it was paid in euros when EURO had a higher price then now...
@@turtle-kl7ur MESSI 170 millions..not 70 millions and no its not counting the endorsements...678million dollars in the last 4 years...
Here's why he's saying nba players are the highest paid ones. Look at a guy like lewandowski. This dude is one of the best strikers yet he only earns around 20-25 million dollars. In the NBA, a good player (but not an all star) earns that. Only exceptions in football are messi, ronaldo, neymar, and others. Other exceptions in other sports include Trout, Mahomes, Brady, Prescott, others. And also, a decent player coming off the bench in the NBA earns around 6-8 million. In association football, a good player like Wijnaldum earns that kind of money.
@@noobpatata3082 even worst player like Coutinho, rashford,sancho,mount got 100millin dollars ,+ contact
700k more till one mil let’s gooooo congrats
Answer: it's Americas 2nd most popular sport but they only have to divide the money up amongst 15 players instead of 50+ in football. Also 82 games vs. 16.
Wrong!! The NBA has a bunch BIGGER global fanbase than the NFL, much much bigger.
@@allenzhu2178 doesn't matter, the NFL makes more money
@@allenzhu2178 true but the nfl makes more money and only the top players in the nfl teams get them big deals
@@eterdayclapz5434 even cricket makes much more money than nba
@@u_gona_get_addictive nobody cares about cricket boy. Only overpopulated country play that shit
Boxing hold my beer 🍺
In football money is scattered around because of many countries, many leagues and divisions. If football were 1 single league it would generate probably x100+ times more
Road to 1M we go
NOW I SEE WHY
Where's the other guy??
TLDR: Smaller roster, bigger slice of the pie. Soft salary cap vs Hard cap for other leagues.
the premier league doesnt have a salary cap though
Make a episode of who is the greatest in boxing
Jaylen Brown next video Nonstop Sports 💪💪💪
Because they have the best union.
Conor McGregor made 190m in one fight
You know what would be interesting?
If you could inculde the average pay in the Champions League. Essentially with American Sports you have the (around) 30 best payed teams in the world. In national football leagues you do not.
Less players less leagues more money to the players
Make more videos please I love you 💗❤️❤️
The NFL is guaranteed at LEAST $125.5 Billion in JUST TV money by 2033. The league is going to be raking in highly likely much more on this deal alone when looking at it's structure. The NFL has 30 of the Top 50 Most Valuable Sports Franchises in the World (NBA - 6, MLB - 5). If the NFL got rid of their 'Hard Cap' system, they could easily top the highest paid players as the teams overall have more money to spend then any other league in the world. BTW 'global viewership' or the globality of a sports team or league doesn't mean anything but just that. Those 'more global' teams of said league aren't bringing in more money or viewership numbers overall than more regional leagues of just the U.S. alone (NFL). Having less players to pay on each team technically does NOT mean they HALF to pay each player a higher or lower certain sum of money in comparison to another league or team in their own league. That's each team's choosing as to what they will pay along with market competition of what another team will offer. Especially when there is no Hard Cap.
Massive contracts are not good it can destroy the whole team terms of chemistry. It’s like they say don’t be greedy
Football is the most paid sports in the world. Who don't know?
Actually it's nba
@@ladymarvin1620 as an average should be
But as an individual
Messi got 170 million dollars per year
While best nba individual Stephen curry got 92 million dollars from gsw
@@u_gona_get_addictivethis false
You need to redo this video again
Cause soccer will be on top ☠️
Please someone explains NONSTOP SPORTS that MESSI has a salary of 170 millions.
NBA teams have a salary of 132 millions
MESSI had a 4 year deal of 680 million dollars...
Hey man, just curious do you know what average means? This is about the average player.
@@TheLobsterLarrythe amount of people butt hurt by facts is hilarious. The video was like “on average NBA players are payed the most” and people are in the comment section saying “BuT MeSSi”. lol 😂😂
All the profit/money should go to ownership and then they get decide what players deserve financially. No agents needed. If you don’t like making 300k a year I’m sure someone would love to play professional basketball for that much money.
Well Forbes says soccer players earn more.
It’s the fact that there’s less people on the court
Lebron is an owner of 98000 crores!How rich!
Hi
WOW YOU DONT KNOW NEYMAR'S SALARY HAHAHAHHAHA
He’s talking about on average yes we know soccer (football) whatever you wanna call it ,teh superstars make more money but on average nba players make more
@@eterdayclapz5434 WOW YOU SHOULD SHUT UP SINCE YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW A THING ABOUT THE REAL FOOTBALL
82 games a season , deserve the pay , less players on the team, so that’s less players to share money with
Messi N CR7 make more than all NBA players
EPL team play 35 game per season
NBA team played 82 game per season
Off course Gate right and television deal would be big for sure..
Well yeah, but in terms of gate, nba is an indoor sport whereas soccer is an outdoor sport, so while nba arenas don’t fit more then 20k people in an arena outdoor sport leagues can have up to 90k fans in stadiums.
Nfl plays 16
The top premier league teams could potentially play the following amount of games.
38 is the base, it's what you play in the league.
Not going to look it up but they have 2 cups where they play about 5 games up to the final I think. If they reach both that's 10.
48
If they qualified for the champions league last year they'll play 6 games in the group stage.
54.
Another 7 games to the final of the champions league.
61.
2 more trophee games potentially.
63.
About 7 games for the club world cup.
70.
This is obviously the maximum and rather unrealistic to be clear. I just wanted to correct the 35...no idea where that came from.
There's a reason teams generally focus on one of these things over the longer period. A good team knocked out of the cups and that only has to focus on the league tends to be a difficult opponent.
A team that has a knockout game 3 days later(play Sunday and Wednesday after for example) will often have star players sit one out.
NBA generates more money per player
Yea but the nba Has a select group off players. Were footballen (soccer) had a lot. If you take the combined salary of the players how play in the superleauge the salary would be higher than basketball
Sorry for my spelling i’m Dutch
Yep. He forgot that clubs have more expenses other than the first team. Each top level club have their own academy that costs money to run.
Also that average salary is inaccurate because he just considered the premier league. There are other leagues that are on the same level as the premier league. Messi, Neymar and Ronaldo aren't playing the the PL.
Hiiiii!
Because that’s league with less players.
Didn’t see the VIDEO YET
cause it how much you bring in its a business
Am I the only one who doesn't like how the NBA always has big teams changing around with free agency rules and whatever. Like in the premier league teams have dominating history and it makes it so much better when small teams have great seasons like leicster 2016
I don't understand your logic. Changing big teams is good for sport. It made it unpredictable. It also means more chance for other team for glory. We will never see west ham or everton in top 4, let alone win the epl bcos of that old fashion thinking. So you want just the same old teams winning year after year after year after year??? You must be a football fans. Football fans always hate changes. They succumb to the fact that some teams has history and some don't and be done with it. That's why when small team like man city suddenly become big due to sheik money, all football fan hate it. But when real madrid wins ucl for the 1864287157 times (predictable and boring af) y'all ok with it
Many Football leagues only have 2 to 3 teams signing the best players available
Lol the way you explain how good a player actually has to be to make it to the NBA is another reason random nobody fans calling players trash etc boggles my mind
messi earns 500k every weak
Aren't Messi and Ronaldo the highest paid athletes itw?
They meant for the average player
Highest paid probably futbol players
Biggest contracts baseball
Highest salary for the average player NBA
Average salary
@@salaji8987 So the answer is that they don't need to pay for player development.
On football manager I have players earning 25 million but obviously to develop some I have players that earn less than 500k.
Not any more, any elite ballers moving to Saudi are the highest paid athlete
What about NASCAR ? (JK) They are drivers not athlethes
Contribute nothing to world except distract us
Because u only have to pay 15 guys that why😂
Hey
300k!! but this guy doesnt do as well as deep voice guy.....
yeah the deep voice guy has an amazing voice lmao
@@Ajayi2003 i hate not knowing his name cuz thats al i can refer to him as
Its also because of the American sports system, not hating I watch NBA and English football but the NBA is set up for viewership, the top teams get views, the bottom teams earn top picks and hyped players for views in the Premier League, if your shit you get relegated
The lower market teams get the hyped up players for example Lamelo ball him alone being there is gonna turn the hornets into a high market team someday
@@eterdayclapz5434 exactly
Rather im ass or not (definitely NOT... ITS IN THERE HEAD) .... I'll be in a bag overseas forsure... ... I'M GOING TO CHANGE A ENTIRE LEAGUE AND CHANGE THE WAY PEOPLE LOOK AT INTERNATIONAL BASKETBALL.
The NBA owners are bitcoin billionaires
Only bcoz of US, if football is hut in US they will get double of NBA's
In football/soccer you didn't counted other leagues like la Liga ,Bundesliga, serie A, league 1 and champions league combined they make more than other sports
But soccer superstars get paid way more than NBA,NFL, NHL & MLB superstars
True but I think he talking about on average
True but only Messi, Ronaldo, Mbappe and Neymar, the others don't make money like NBA superstars, at least 20 superstars in the NBA are making above 30 M in salary this year, in Football only those 4 makes a lot of money, the 5th best payed football player makes less than 30 M in salary
But if you look at the highest paid athletes list most of them play soccer.......
Well yeah but why do players like Beckham, Ibra, Pirlo, Schweinsteiger.... go to the MLS? To sack a lot of money again and they retiring.
Baseball players: and I took that personally
NBA's ratings are so low...no one is watching the regular season games
NBA players are fewer
What's happening to these commentators
Fr
You focus on all the sports that speak English. Plus the La liga, French league and others leagues paid there player way more than the NBA you need to check yourself. Cristiano ronaldo and Messi are the top paid players in the world and plus Football is global sports that is played more and it is watch more than NBA. Those players I mention are billionaires too. The stadiums over in Europe can are bigger than the nba stadium and there is more people at the stadium watching than there is at an nba which btw I have seen them both at the stadium when there was a game for NBA and for football.

@@GradjanskiDinamo I'm dumb lmao. But u just spent 15 min writing this shit to prove a point. Like damn
Champions league isn't a league.
The league refers to football inside the country with the usual 2 games against every team format.
It's what is used to determine your spot in the champions league which is a knock out tournament at the end of the day.
Sorry but hockey players should be the most paid
Less player = more money
