Forbes has released their annual 100 highest paid athletes list, which includes four members of the OKC Thunder, the most from one NBA team. Followed by Washington, Boston, Golden State, and Memphis with three players each.
Russell Westbrook 13th, Carmelo Anthony 38th, Paul George 57th, and Steven Adams 86th were the four Thunder players named on the list.
It’s impressive for a small market such as Oklahoma City to have four Thunder players make the Forbes list. Much like the ESPN World Fame list Westbrook and Anthony were named to last month, such honors should be applauded.
