The Los Angeles Lakers coach JJ Redick has already started making noise in the league, taking the team to a flying start. Something that the fans had been anticipating ever since LeBron James and Redick sat down for a special podcast in the 2024 off-season. There’s no doubt that the 40-year-old’s ability to carry the LakeShow for yet another ring, five years after the 2020 NBA Bubble. But at the same time, let’s take a closer look at JJ’s personal life, professional life, and wealth.

At the age of 40, Redick is the youngest millionaire coach in the NBA world. Yes, it’s quite a gamble from the perspective of the Lakers front office. Apart from his 15-year-long experience as a solid role player, the star doesn’t really have professional coaching experience. Much like Steve Kerr, who had only coached his son’s junior team before taking over the Warriors fold in 2014. Except for the fact that Kerr was 48 years old and had won 5 NBA rings.

So, it’s safe to that JJ Redick will become one of a kind if he makes wonders with his Lakers coaching stint. Importantly, the star coach is indeed a good start to the journey, as he became the first coach since Phil Jackson to win the first two games of the Lakers’ regular season. Well, we do have a promising start.

JJ Redick Networth: How much did JJ Redick earn in the NBA?

As per several reports circulating on the internet, JJ Redick’s net worth is estimated at around $50 million. It makes him the fifth richest coach in the league behind Jason Kidd, Steve Kerr, Doc Rivers, and Greg Popovich. And, currently, the Lakers have signed a four-year contract with an annual salary of approximately around $8 million.

Looking at JJ’s vision for the side which is player development and building a strong basement, the contract may extend way beyond four years. Notably, a recent report proved Redick’s commitment to the job, as he was spotted watching basketball films during a car wash. This kind of story only increases the anticipation surrounding Redick’s tenure in the Lakers’ camp.

Now let us head back to the eye-catching value, $50 million. Let’s not forget that Redick had a successful 15 NBA seasons along with a Finals appearance. Moreover, before taking over the Lakers’ job, he had a stint as an analyst on ESPN and also carried out a side hustle with own his production company.

Firstly, let’s take a look at the star coach’s NBA career earnings. After coming into the league as the 11th overall pick in the 2006 NBA Draft, Redick represented the Orlando Magic for seven seasons. He also helped the team reach the 2009 NBA Finals, which they lost 0-4 against the Lakers. Following that, he has represented Bucks, Clippers, Sixers, Pelicans, and Mavericks, and played his last career game in the 2020-21 season until he sustained a career-ending heel injury. During the course of his career, Redick made a total career earning of $116 million, as per Sportrac.com. 

Apart from that, JJ Redick had a successful career as a top-dollar ESPN analyst and managed his own production company, ThreeFourTwo Productions. While we don’t have official figures of his earnings, we do have a figure and it’s safe to say, that Redick has built a money-making machine. ESPN’s Brian Windhorst in a recent interview gave a sneak peek into Redick’s media business. He said, “JJ has a very powerful media career. Not only that he had this great job at our company, ESPN and ABC, his podcast … that is lucrative.” To be more precise, Windhorst added that Redick made more than what Dan Hurley made with his $5 million coaching job at UConn.

JJ Redick’s luxury cars and mansions

With the kind of money flowing in, JJ Redick undoubtedly will have luxury cars parked in his garage. But, unfortunately, there isn’t much information available on the cars owned by the Tennessee native. However, we do have information about the star coach’s couple of mansions that he owned back in the day as a player.

Back in 2012, Redick and his wife Chelsea Kilgore purchased a house in Texas for $5 million. It was time when the star transitioned from the Magic to the Bucks. It’s a six-bedroom villa with nine bathrooms in a 10,000 sq. ft space in Irving. The villa had everything that a millionaire would wish to have. Starting from luxurious living rooms to a brick-clad wine cellar.

However, the couple listed the house for sale in 2016 for $4.9 million. Forbes reasoned that the couple is selling the house because “they are spending more time on the West Coast with J.J. playing for the Los Angeles team… They love Austin and do plan on calling it home again in the future!” Apart from that, the couple also owned a $7 million penthouse in Brooklyn which they purchased in 2017.

Living amidst the concrete jungle, this house also had everything to offer, ranging from four bedrooms and bathrooms. Nevertheless, the couple again listed this house back in 2021. So, we don’t currently have clear information regarding the star coach’s current mansion. Stay tuned for more updates. Let us know your favorite moments from Redick’s NBA career in the comments below.
