In NBA history, there are always some players who have become symbols of the times with their outstanding skills and unique charm. For countless fans born in the 1980s and 1990s, the "Four Points Backs" are undoubtedly the most shining star in their youthful memories.

Kobe, Iverson, McGrady, and Carter, these four superstars not only showed extraordinary strength on the court, but also won the love and support of countless fans with their unique style of play and personal charm. Next, let’s review the careers of these four legendary figures together to see how much wealth they have gained after working hard in the arena for many years.
Kobe: $328 million

Kobe devoted all his 20-year career to the Los Angeles Lakers and brought five championship trophys to the team. With his outstanding football skills and tenacious fighting spirit, he has long been the No. 1 player in the league, and almost every contract is a maximum salary. Even at the end of his career, he was able to earn an annual salary of more than $20 million. Throughout his career, Kobe has earned a total salary of $328 million, the highest earnings of the Big Four.
Carter: $184 million

Carter is known as the greatest dunker in NBA history. His dunk combines strength and beauty, which is extremely ornamental. Looking back on Carter's 22-year career, he has neither a championship nor a MVP nor a scoring champion, but he still earned $184 million in salary, which is already the best among the players in the same period. At the end of his career, Carter rejected the Warriors' invitation and said that he did not want to win the championship. This competitive spirit has won the admiration of countless fans.
McDy: US$163 million

McDy has become an idol in the hearts of countless fans with her elegant style and amazing talent. He won the scoring champion twice and created the "35 seconds 13" miracle that shook the past and the present. However, injuries became a stumbling block in his career, causing him to go to multiple teams at the end of his career. Despite this, McGrady's total salary still reached $163 million.
Iverson: $154 million

As the No. 1 pick in the 96 Golden Generation, Iverson is the first to become famous among the four major points guards. He proved to the world that a small man can compete in the NBA and become a superstar. At the beginning of this century, Iverson led the team to the finals and won the regular season MVP and scoring champion, which was the most popular one. However, due to injuries and body limitations, Iverson was also the first to retire among the four major scorebacks, earning a total salary of $154 million in his 14-year NBA career.

To sum up, the income of the "Four Big Boys" is closely related to their achievements, popularity, and the length and stability of their careers. Kobe has earned the most revenue with his long-term top performance and team success. Although Carter has little honor, his income is also considerable with his super high popularity and long career. Although McGrady was affected by injuries, his super popularity and strength at his peak also brought him a lot of income. Although Iverson has achieved many personal achievements on the court, his income is relatively small due to various factors.
Of course, these numbers do not fully measure their status and influence in the hearts of fans. The "Four Big Scoreguards" interpreted the passion and charm of basketball in their own way and became a hero in the hearts of countless people. Their stories and spirit will also be passed down forever in the history of basketball.
