Can Jordan get an annual salary of 100 million in his current era? The God of Basketball deserves its reputation

How to measure whether a player has entered the ranks of stars or even superstars? Perhaps an important measure is to compare it with Jordan!

The just ended 24-25 season, the most proud person in the league is Thunder star Alexander!

So, has Alexander now joined the ranks of super giants?

This season just ended, Alexander averaged 32.7 points, 5 rebounds, 6.4 assists, 1.7 steals and 1 block in the regular season. His average score was the best in the scoring list. He finally won the league's scoring champion, leading the team to a record of 68 wins, and was finally elected as the regular season MVP.

It is worth mentioning that Alexander's final score in the regular season was fixed to 2484 points, and the total score in the playoffs was 688 points, with a total score of 3172 points. Since then, he has been catching up with Jordan in the 1992-93 season.

In that season, Jordan scored a total of 3,207 points in a single season, and no one can match his NBA history.

Before this season, a total of three stars were also counted in the NBA history's players who won the scoring champion, MVP and FMVP in a single season, namely Jabbar, Jordan (4 times), and O'Neal.

After this season, Alexander successfully entered the above ranks, successfully competing with Jabbar, Jordan, O'Neal and others.

If you do such a feat without the support of strength, you can hardly imagine...

Since the NBA established the Finals MVP trophy in the 1968-69 season, only 10 players have won MVP and FMVP in the same season (some players have won more than once) -

Larry Bird, Magic, Michael Jordan, O'Juwon, O'Neal, Duncan, and James!

Now Alexander has once again entered the double MVP club, and is a well-deserved new generation of superstars in the league! Another prominent feature of a superstar is that its huge salary is appropriately matched with its superstar status!

Alexander and Thunder successfully completed the maximum salary renewal and signed a four-year, $285 million super contract, a sky-high contract with an average annual salary of $71.25 million.

Even the God of Basketball Michael Jordan earned less than $100 million in his entire career, only $93.9 million.

In this comparison, it is becoming more and more obvious that the business operation of the NBA is so successful, and its commercial value is even more "millions".

But don't forget that if Jordan had not performed sensational performances in the arena, the NBA would not have had such a max salary today!

The salary Alexander received in the next four years crushed Jordan's entire career salary in one fell swoop, which does not mean that Alexander has surpassed Jordan!

As for whether Alexander can surpass Jordan, the future cannot be, and no one can surpass the NBA!

But it is undeniable that Alexander is now the unspoken star in the league.
