BRITTNEY GRINER
BASKETBALL
NET WORTH: $4 MILLION

Basketball nowadays is so different compared to the past couple of decades. But there’s only one thing that remains the same: a dominant player that would mop up the floor and show how basketball should be played. That’s what Brittney Griner exactly did in her entire career as a basketball player. During her high school days, she exhibited stellar individual performances, including the historic game against Houston Alief Hastings, where she recorded a jaw-dropping 25 blocks, the most blocks made by a female high school player in the US.

In 2012, she won the ESPY Award for the best female athlete. Griner joined the women’s Olympic team of the United States, which helped them win the 2016 Summer Olympics. In 2013, she signed an endorsement contract with Nike. Her success in the hardwood also earned her a hefty amount of payroll that quickly lifted her credit score to the green zone. She also built up an estimated net worth of around $4 million.
