Earnings Since 2000: $359,109,419
One of the most bothersome defenders in this era, Chris Paul has parlayed that peskiness into several big paydays.
Following his rookie deal, Paul signed a $63.6 million max contract with the New Orleans Hornets in 2008. He landed a five-year max extension worth $107.3 million on the Los Angeles Clippers in 2013 and followed that with a $159.7 max deal in Houston in 2018.
In his debut season with Golden State, he's set to receive $30.8 million. Because he has a non-guaranteed contract in 2024-25, Paul might need a new deal. Provided it's worth $10.1 million or more, though, he and Durant will join LeBron in the $400 million club.
