What Is Kevin Durant's Net Worth In 2022?
Kevin Durant has had an outstanding NBA career, but what is his net worth?
The 33-year-old basketball superstar, Kevin Durant, has been tearing up the NBA for 14 seasons now.
Growing up in Washington DC, Durant immediately stood out from his classmates, not only showing off his sporting talents on the court but also physically reaching 6ft in height whilst he was still in middle school (age 10-12).
So after a childhood dedicated to training, plus the added help of reaching 6ft 9inches in college, it is no wonder Durant has made a big name for himself in the NBA.
His successful career has seen him pick up two championship rings, three olympic medals and a huge sum of money.

Durant’s highest paying sponsorship comes from none other than the world’s leading sportswear brand, Nike.
