Once upon a time, when Jordan got an annual salary of $33.14 million and his seasonal salary reached $30.45 million, we understood the gap between the stars and the super giants. Nowadays, players' salaries are often $40 million to $50 million, and superstars can break records every time they sign, such as Tatum, Jokic and Alexander. Next, if we discuss the salary of players in the new season, do you know who has the highest annual salary?

Alexander 25-26 season 38.33 million US dollars

Alexander has just reached a four-year, $285 million agreement with the Thunder, but the original contract still has the last two seasons left, of which the annual salary for the next season is $38.33 million, and in the 27-28 season, he can get $63.71 million!

Edwards 25-26 season $45.55 million

Edwards signed a five-year deal with the Timberwolves the year before last with a total value of $245 million, which makes his salary in the new season $45.55 million. In terms of his performance and his leadership performance last season, I really don’t have much thought.

James 25-26 season 52.63 million US dollars

James has implemented the player option for the new season, which means his annual salary is 52.63 million US dollars. James, who has not signed a maximum salary so far, has a fault-like lead in total salary. Currently, in NBA history, he has only more than $500 million in total salary.

Durant's 25-26 season US$53.28 million

KD's contract for the new season is still the last year of the four-year, US$194 million contract signed with the Suns, and it also reached more than US$50 million. Next, it can only sign a maximum of 2-year contract for each contract.

Tatum 25-26 season $54.13 million

The Rabbit is likely to not be able to return in the new season due to the ruptured Achilles tendon. Last summer, he signed a 5-year super maximum salary with Boston, totaling $314 million, which makes his annual salary in the new season as high as $54.13 million.

It is worth mentioning that the teammate Jaylen Brown of the Rabbits will earn $53.14 million in the new season, while Antetokounmpo's annual salary is $54.13 million.

Jokic 25-26 season 55.22 million US dollars

At present, Jokic's career salary has reached US$250 million, and his salary in the new season has reached US$55.22 million, ranking third highest annual salary in the new season with Embiid. As for the second highest player, I believe many fans did not expect that Jackson of the Grizzlies will have an annual salary of up to $56.41 million in the new season! Who is the highest in

, and how many Harden has the highest annual salary in the 25-26 season, Curry is still the player with the highest annual salary, with a specific annual salary of $59.61 million. Next season, Curry's annual salary will exceed 60 million, and it will reach $62.59 million! As compensation of only about $10 million in its peak period, there is no problem with the Warriors' contract to Curry.

As for Harden, the latest contract signed with the Clippers after the free market opened this year is US$81.5 million for two years, of which the annual salary in the new season is US$39.18 million, ranking 33rd in the league! As the absolute core of last season, Harden helped the Clippers to enter the playoffs but once again "falls out" in the tiebreak battle against the Nuggets, which also makes some fans not feel worthless because of signing such a contract.
