<h2><span data-preserver-spaces="true">Austin Reaves Net Worth 2023 (Updated)</span></h2>
<span data-preserver-spaces="true">Auston Reaves started his NBA journey with humble beginnings. With every trip to the line, he gained media attention, ultimately making him a static piece in the <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nba/los-angeles-lakers/">Los Angeles Lakers</a> lineup. Currently, Austin Reaves boasts a net worth ranging from 2 to 3 million dollars. However, thanks to his new contract, his net worth is poised for a significant boost in the near future.</span>

[caption id="attachment_1621799" align="aligncenter" width="1920"]<img class="size-full wp-image-1621799" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/2023-03-18T055128Z_1972993987_MT1USATODAY20259061_RTRMADP_3_NBA-DALLAS-MAVERICKS-AT-LOS-ANGELES-LAKERS.jpg" alt="Austin Reaves" width="1920" height="1280" /> Mar 17, 2023; Los Angeles, California, USA; Los Angeles Lakers guard Austin Reaves (15) reacts after scoring the basket and drawing he foul against the Dallas Mavericks during the second half at Crypto.com Arena. Mandatory Credit: Gary A. Vasquez-USA TODAY Sports[/caption]

<span data-preserver-spaces="true">Primarily, Reaves's net worth is built upon his NBA contracts. Initially, he secured a 2-year deal with the Lakers, which came with a salary of $1.6 million. In 2023, Reaves has been offered a massive 4-year contract worth $53,827,872, potentially catapulting his net worth to new heights.</span>
<h2><span data-preserver-spaces="true">Austin Reaves' early life</span></h2>
<span data-preserver-spaces="true">Reaves was born on May 29, 1998, to a hooper couple. His love affair with the game began at Cedar Ridge High School in Cedar Ridge, Arkansas. As a high schooler, he quickly rose to become Arkansas' sensation. Making it to the All-State team three times, he dropped a high 73-point game against Forrest City High School in triple overtime. In his senior year, he averaged a mind-boggling 32.5 points, 8.8 rebounds, and 5.1 assists per game. Furthermore, he led his squad to a Class 3A state championship and was named MVP of the tournament after dropping 43.3 points PPG across four games.</span>

<span data-preserver-spaces="true">Fast forward to college, Reaves decided to take his talents to Wichita State in 2016. He picked Shockers over other suitors like South Dakota State and Arkansas State. However, it was not at all smooth sailing. Reaves had to undergo surgery due to a torn labrum in his left shoulder, which bothered him since high school. Soon after dropping 7 threes in a single half for Wichita State, Reaves decided to transfer to the University of Oklahoma.</span>

<span data-preserver-spaces="true">Finding himself a fit in Oklahoma, Reaves propelled through every challenge. In one of his best games, Reaves scored a career-high 41 points, while carrying his team to a 19-point second-half comeback and sealing the deal with a buzzer-beater. As a redshirt junior, Reaves earned a spot on the Big 12 All-Newcomer Team. In his senior year, he landed on the prestigious First Team All-Big 12. Soon, Reaves declared for the 2021 NBA draft on March 31, waving goodbye to his remaining college eligibility.</span>
<h2><span data-preserver-spaces="true">Austin Reaves's family and personal life</span></h2>
<span data-preserver-spaces="true">Austin Reaves is the offspring of Nicole Wilkett and Brian Reaves and might be the reason behind Austin's on-court brilliance. Both his parents had illustrious college basketball careers at Arkansas State. His mother, in her senior year, averaged nearly 21.3 points per game and earned all-conference honors. On the other hand, his father left his mark by tying for third place in the program's history with 384 career assists. Adding to the basketball legacy in his family, Reaves' brother, Spencer, also played college basketball. He hooped for North Greenville and Central Missouri before embarking on a professional career of his own.</span>

<span data-preserver-spaces="true">An interesting facet of Reaves's background is his German heritage through his grandmother. This lineage enabled him to secure a German passport in 2022. In his free time, Reaves dedicates his time to being around his family. As of now, Austin skillfully divides his time between a farm in Newark and his father's residence in Batesville, a mere 10-minute drive away.</span>
<h2><span data-preserver-spaces="true">Austin Reaves NBA Career</span></h2>
<span data-preserver-spaces="true">As the 2021 NBA draft commenced, Austin Reaves wanted to do things his way. Reaves opted not to be selected by the <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nba/detroit-pistons/">Detroit Pistons</a>, who had the 42nd overall pick, choosing instead to go undrafted. Instead, he signed a two-way contract with the Lakers on August 3, 2021. A few weeks later, Reaves got a 2-year standard contract from the Lakers.</span>

<span data-preserver-spaces="true">Reaves made his much-anticipated NBA debut on October 22, 2021, coming off the bench. Soon, Reaves was presented with opportunities to display his caliber. On December 15, 2021, Reaves scored 15 points with a game-winning three. In a grand finale of his rookie season, Reaves notched his first career triple-double of 31/16/10. Similarly, slowly and steadily, Reaves imbibed himself into the culture of modern-day Lakers. Despite multiple roster changes and a year-long struggle, Reaves found his fit in the Lakers' offense.</span>

<span data-preserver-spaces="true">Reaves's outstanding rookie year earned him catchy nicknames like "Hillbilly Kobe" and "AR-15,". However, he has expressed a desire to move past these monikers. After the 2022-2023 season, Reaves is now not only a starter but also a centerpiece in the Lakers' offense.</span>

<span data-preserver-spaces="true">Due to his NBA performances, Reaves has recently had international basketball experience in the 2023 FIBA World Cup. While Reaves initially was interested in playing for Germany, he ultimately chose to join the USA World Cup team.</span>

<h1 style="text-align: center">Jalen Green 2021: Net Worth, Salary, and Endorsements</h1>
<p style="text-align: center">2002-born Jalen Green is one of the up-and-coming college basketball stars in America. The 19-year old created major waves when he opted against playing NCAA college basketball and signed for the NBA G League.</p>
https://www.instagram.com/p/CMNYkBSnLZf/
<p style="text-align: center">The teenager chose the G League over offers from Auburn, Oregon and Memphis. He was a five-star recruit heading out of high school but opted to choose a different path to make it to the NBA. Green signed a one-year deal worth $500,000 with the NBA G League Ignite and was the first player to join the franchise.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: center">Jalen Green net worth</h2>
<p style="text-align: center">As of 2021, Green has an estimated net worth of about $1 million dollars, reports <a href="https://www.celebnetworths.com/famous/jalen-green-net-worth-age-height-wife#:~:text=Jalen%20Green%20net%20worth%20is%20estimated%20about%20%241%20million%20dollars." target="_blank" rel="noopener">celebnetworths.com</a>. A major chunk of his wealth comes from the recent $500,000 deal he signed with the NBA G League. Opting against taking the usual NCAA route to the NBA was not an easy choice, but Green is part of a rare breed of ballers.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">Multiple analysts have tipped Jalen to emerge as the top pick at the 2021 NBA Draft. He is set to bag a 7-figure shoe deal when he arrives in the big league.</p>
https://youtu.be/YmzZwWbJQfY
<h2 style="text-align: center">Jalen Green endorsements</h2>
<p style="text-align: center">Earlier in 2021, Jalen penned his first professional shoe deal with popular sports manufacturers Adidas. He joins an Adidas ambassador team that includes players like James Harden, Candace Parker, Damian Lillard, Chiney Ogwumike, Anthony Edwards and Liz Cambage.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><em>?Adidas has been a part of my life for a while now, and when the opportunity arose to join the brand leading up to my rookie year, I thought, why not join the family? They?ve always accepted me as family and shown love."</em></p>
<p style="text-align: center"><em>?On the court, I?m going to bring excitement and a winning mentality to the next level. If you lock in and watch me play, you?ll see my competitive edge. And back in Fresno, I want the kids who are watching me there to know that they can do it too,?</em> Green <a href="https://ne-np.facebook.com/dunicornjalengreen04/posts/today-adidas-announced-the-signing-of-top-prospect-jalen-green-to-the-three-stri/989961625165117/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> in a statement.</p>

<p style="text-align: center">Green was named <em>Sports Illustrated</em> All-American player of the year in 2020. He was selected to play in the McDonald's All-American Game, the Jordan Brand Classic and the Nike Hoop Summit.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">However, he never featured in any due to the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic.</p>

Jalen Green

Jalen Green 2021: Net Worth, Salary, and Endorsements 2002-born Jalen Green is one of the up-and-coming college basketball stars in America. The 19-year old created major waves when he opted against playing NCAA college basketball and signed for the NBA G League. https://www.instagram.com/p/CMNYkBSnLZf/ The teenager chose the G League over offers from Auburn, Oregon and Memphis. He was a five-star recruit heading out of high school but opted to choose a different path to make it to the NBA. Green signed a one-year deal worth $500,000 with the NBA G League Ignite and was the first player to join the franchise. Jalen Green net worth As of 2021, Green has an estimated net worth of about $1 million dollars, reports celebnetworths.com. A major chunk of his wealth comes from the recent $500,000 deal he signed with the NBA G League.

Multiple analysts have tipped Jalen to emerge as the top pick at the 2021 NBA Draft. He is set to bag a 7-figure shoe deal when he arrives in the big league. https://youtu.be/YmzZwWbJQfY Jalen Green endorsements Earlier in 2021, Jalen penned his first professional shoe deal with popular sports manufacturers Adidas. He joins an Adidas ambassador team that includes players like James Harden, Candace Parker, Damian Lillard, Chiney Ogwumike, Anthony Edwards and Liz Cambage. ?Adidas has been a part of my life for a while now, and when the opportunity arose to join the brand leading up to my rookie year, I thought, why not join the family? They?ve always accepted me as family and shown love.&#8221; ?On the court, I?m going to bring excitement and a winning mentality to the next level. If you lock in and watch me play, you?ll see my competitive edge. And back in Fresno, I want the kids who are watching me there to know that they can do it too,? Green said in a statement. https://twitter.com/adidasHoops/status/1397938594359037954?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1397938594359037954%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Ftherookiewire.usatoday.com%2F2021%2F05%2F27%2Fjalen-green-nba-draft-shoe-deal-adidas%2F Jalen Green high school California-born Jalen is of Filipino descent.

Klay Thompson suffered a torn ACL during the 2019 NBA Finals and missed the subsequent season. But as the shooting guard was gearing up for his return to the 2021 season, he tore his right Achilles tendon a month before the season opener, which again sidelined him for an entire year. After missing the first couple of months in the 2021-22 campaign, Klay played his game in 941 days against the Cavaliers.

While Thompson took some time to readjust to the game, he became a major part of the Warriors' run to their fourth championship in eight years. This continued his historic run of not losing a playoff series when healthy since the 2016 NBA Finals.
