In 2011, Kobe Bryant has an estimated net worth of $140 million. His annual salary for the Lakers is now almost at $25 million. He was initially drafted by the Hornets and then soon signed a three year contract with the Lakers. In his third year with the Lakers, he signed a $70 million contract for another six years.
Besides his salary that he gets from playing basketball for the LA Lakers, he also has endorsement deals with many companies. In 2003, when he was charged with sexual assault, many companies have suspended their contracts with Kobe. The case had hurt Kobe’s popularity, his marriage and his finances.
Granted, he may not turn dirt poor with many companies suspending their deals but it is indeed an all-time low for a famous basketball superstar like Kobe. When the case was closed and Kobe was not found guilty of sexual assault he also gained back many of his endorsement deals soon after.
His estimated net worth in 2011 is $140 million which makes him one of the richest athletes in the United States. Many endorsement companies, major and minor, can definitely contribute to Kobe’s net worth. He is indeed talented on the basketball court which makes him very bankable.
