NBA stars rank high up on the list of the world’s highest-paid athletes and that means they have enough funds at their disposal to spend on the luxuries they desire. Often, it’s all about creating an image and fans expect peak performance from their favorite stars both on and outside the basketball court. It’s understandable why most of them choose to go for the most expensive outfits, footwear, accessories, and other swag. Most of them opt to spend even more on cars and houses. Here are a few NBA stars who boast of having the most luxurious houses and stunning sets of wheels.
Pau Gasol, Milwaukee Bucks – California, Estimated $3.325 Million
Pau Gasol, the Spanish basketball player for the Milwaukee Bucks, won the NBA Championship twice when he played for the Los Angeles Lakers. Gasol scored quite the deal when selling his Redondo Beach residence in 2016 for $3.325 million. The house was composed of two condos that were connected to create a single residence, that came with four bedrooms and six bathrooms. Other awesome features were an elevator, a media room/wet bar, and its own temperature-controlled wine cellar. Pau acquired the two units separately in 2008 and 2011 for $2.98 million, so this real estate property sale paid off in the end.
