The 50 Highest Paid Nba Players 2013

Not surprisingly, once again Kobe Bryant (whose Lakers got booted from the playoffs last week) is the highest paid NBA player in the league. The rest of the top 10 is completely different from last year. For example, last year’s second highest player Rashard Lewis is no longer even in the top 50. Last year Rashard made $22.1 million, this year he is making $1.3 million. The same is also true for last year’s #3 player Tim Duncan whose $9 million 2013 salary is not enough to crack the top 50 this year.
