At one point in his career he was. In fact, 6 out of the last 12 year, Garnett had been the highest paid player in the NBA (08-09, 07-08, 06-07, 03-04, 02-03, 01-02 and 2000-01). This is just his league salary, not endorsements (Adidas, gatorade ..etc.)
However Garnett is not the highest paid player for a single season. Michael Jordan was signed to a $33,000,000 contract for the 1997-98 season.
Garnetts highest single season salary was $28,000,000.
KG which is for Kevin Garnett the best player ever
Kevin Garnett is currently (2009-2010) the highest paid player in the NBA with a record salary of $24,751,934. The highest salary ever was Michael Jordan's, who made over $30 million.
No.
Kevin Garnett won the 2008 NBA championship. He won it with the Boston Celtics, after defeating the Los Angeles Lakers 4 games to 2, in the NBA Finals.
5. Tyreke Evans 4. Kevin Garnett 3. Jermaine O'Neal 2. Kobe Bryant 1. Andrew Bynum
Well, that is debatable. I personally think it is either Michael Jordan or Kobe Bryant, but many different people have been suggested.
Yes, he talks about his behavorial issues in high school.
Kevin Garnett, in his still incomplete career, has accumulated $165,413,420,545,872,999,826 from his NBA salary. Someone else suggested Michael Jordan, who only accumulated $939,772,500 in his career. Jordan got like $36 million dollars in his last year, I don't think Garnett can touch that!
6 years, 126 million $. Actually the highest rookie contract ever was Glenn Robinson's rookie deal 10 years, $68 million, in 1994, Leading to a rookie cap. But KG's rookie deal was 3 years, $5.6 million.
