In ten years as the Thunder s third young master, Durant has become the salary GOAT
12:37am, 22 October 2025Basketball
Durant, who was traded to the Rockets this offseason, completed a contract extension with the team.
Durant's salary cut is US$30 million, which is US$90 million in 2 years. This is the last resort for the 37-year-old Durant. For the Rockets, making good use of Durant to win the championship in the past two years is the most important thing.
After Durant renewed his contract with the Rockets, his total career salary reached an astonishing US$598.2 million, surpassing James and becoming the GOAT in NBA history.
James, Curry, Booker, and George rank 2-5 respectively.
Since NBA wages have been rising, Durant's salary GOAT position will not last for a few years.
This offseason, Durant renewed his contract with the Clippers for two years and US$90 million for two years, and Harden renewed his contract with the Clippers for US$81.5 million for two years. As another one of the three former Thunder players, Westbrook has just signed a one-year, US$3.6 million basic salary contract with the Kings, which is still a non-guaranteed contract.
In the past ten years, the careers of the Thunder's three young players have been very bumpy, especially Westbrook, who has changed seven teams in the last seven seasons.
During the ten years of the Thunder's third youngster, Durant was the best. He won the coveted championship and two consecutive FMVPs with the Warriors. In the later period, he was transferred to many teams due to major injuries, but his personal performance still did not decline.
Harden and Westbrook's personal statistics in the past few years were invincible, especially Westbrook, who averaged a triple-double in four seasons in five years, which shocked the past and the present.
Harden's team has always been a playoff team and has never missed the playoffs in his career. It is one of the very few in NBA history.
