College Stars Outearning LeBron | Spokane News

from Spokane News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

LeBron James is about to make less money next season than at least eighteen college basketball players—yes, the King himself is getting outpaced by today’s college stars. Once, NBA riches were the only path to financial glory, but now top college athletes are raking in more than LeBron’s career-low $3.8 million, thanks to booming NIL deals and a new trend: elite players staying in school to cash in. With some projected to earn over $10 million this season—more than double LeBron’s pay—this isn’t just a shift, it’s a revolution. These athletes, many born after LeBron’s 2003 draft, are rewriting the rules of sports and money, leaving coaches and GMs scrambling to keep up.
