How is Dwight Howard’s net worth impacted by his previous NBA contracts?

Dwight Howard was unable to secure a contract for the 2022-2023 NBA season, leading him to take his talent overseas, as he is now dominating the Taiwanese League. If this marks the end for the three-time Defensive Player, his NBA career will land him in the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame.

Throughout his career, Howard has averaged 15.7 points per game, 11.8 rebounds per game, 1.3 assists per game, 0.9 steals per game, and 1.8 blocks per game while shooting 48.7% from the field.

Additionally, Howard made plenty of money over his illustrious career. The eight-time All-Star has accumulated a net worth of $140 million, largely thanks to his NBA career. Over his eighteen-year career, Howard earned nearly $248 million from NBA contracts alone.

Dwight Howard has also received plenty of endorsement money throughout his career, as he was endorsed by brands such as Adidas, McDonald’s, and, most recently, the Chinese shoe brand Peak. He has reportedly earned over $100 million in endorsements throughout his career.
