Did you know that LaMelo Ball spent a significant chunk of cash on a custom Lambo, a matching custom suit and custom-made one-off Cartier watch?

And do you know who the richest NBA star is?

From Michael Jordan’s game-worn sneakers that cost more than a Bugatti to LeBron James and his ultra-luxurious company car, how much do you know about these NBA stars and their toys?

#1. How much did Michael Jordan's 'Last Dance' sneakers sell for?

Dubbed ‘The Last Dance’, because they were worn by MJ in his final game, these pair of Jordans fetched $2.2m at auction. The crazy part is MJ gifted the shoes to a ball boy after the game.

#2. Which car brand did LeBron James team up with?

LeBron James has an ongoing partnership with GMC, and he’s a brand ambassador for the GMC Hummer EV.

The electric Hummer starts at $87,000.

#3. What luxury watch is Nikola Jokic wearing in this picture?

In the picture, NBA MVP Jokic is seen wearing a Rolex GMT ‘Batman’.

Nikola Jokic is nicknamed ‘The Joker’, and his brother Strahinja pointed that out when he shared this picture to his Instagram.

“The Joker is wearing Batman,” Strahinja said.

#4. What did Wilt Chamberlain's game-worn kit sell for?

In June 2023, Wilt Chamberlain’s game-worn kit fetched $1.79m at auction.

Chamberlain wore this kit in his first NBA season, becoming the first NBA player to win both Rookie of The Year and MVP in his first NBA season.

#5. Who is the richest NBA player?

Michael Jordan is by far the richest NBA star in the world with a net worth of $2 billion.

This is largely thanks to MJ’s deal with NIKE.

The 60-year-old star receives five percent for each Jordan shoe sold.

 

 

#6. Why is LaMelo Ball's latest watch so unique?

All answers are correct.

LaMelo clearly has a knack for custom made things.

When he bought his Lambo Urus, he had it painted neon yellow and then he had a custom suit made in matching colors
