Earning over $300 million in career NBA salaries, and a significant amount other than that in shoe deals and other endorsements, Garnett is one of the highest earners in NBA history. After signing him to two of the biggest contracts in NBA history up until that point, Garnett was traded by the Minnesota Timberwolves to the Boston Celtics in a 7-players-for-1 deal that was the highest number of players traded by a franchise in exchange for one player up until the Chris Paul trade to the Rockets in the summer of 2017.

Winning the MVP award for the 2003-04 season and bringing the Timberwolves their only Conference Finals appearance in franchise history was the high-water mark of his career, and he only was able to win an NBA title at the late stages of his prime.

Garnett's net worth right now, however, is under dispute after he sued his financial advisors, who were the same team that represented Tim Duncan. It is rumoured that the group sunk around $70 million of Garnett's fortune, and it remains to be seen how much of that he can reclaim in the legal proceedings.
