Michael Jordan and Bradley Beal
Bradley Beal is a fine player. He’s made three All-Star teams to date, and can put the ball in the basket. Michael Jordan is — of course — the G.O.A.T. Let us compare the salaries each has made in the NBA during their careers.
Bradley Beal (with existing years left on current deal): $428.9 million
Michael Jordan: $94 million
Only twice did MJ make more than $5 million in a single season in which he played. Beal is slated to make $57 million alone in 2026-27.
