17. Elton Brand – $165,338,631

The former No. 1 overall pick in the 1999 draft by the Bulls made his money with the Los Angeles Clippers and Philadelphia 76ers when he made between $10.9 million and $17 million. Brand made two All-Star teams in his 15-year career, averaging 16.6 points and 8.8 rebounds per game.

16. Stephon Marbury – $151,115,945

Marbury averaged 19.3 points, 7.6 assists and three rebounds per game over his 13-year NBA career. He was a two-time All-Star in 2001 and 2003 and although his time with the New York Knicks wasn’t the most successful, he did make $88 million in his five seasons in New York.

15. Juwan Howard – $151,465,633

Howard is on this list for at one point being an All-Star caliber power forward who once made $20.6 at the end of his $100 million-plus contract he signed with the Washington Bullets but also for being a steady and consistent enough player to stick around for 19 seasons and stay healthy enough to cash a check. He was on the 2012 Miami Heat team that won the championship when he played 24 minutes over nine playoff games.
