However, NBA superstar Michael Jordan still holds the record for the highest-paid player in the league, earning 33.1 million dollars in his final season with the Chicago Bulls (1997/98). In today’s game, this sum would be $55.2 million dollars.
Jordan‘s salary that season is all the more impressive when you compare it to that of his teammates. He earned more than half of the total Bulls‘ wage bill that year (61.3m dollars ) and earned more than the rest of his teammates combines (31m dollars). His deal was worth seven times more than the second-highest paid players in the side: Toni Kukoc, Ron Harper and Dennis Rodman (4.5m dollars each).
