Paul George’s net worth is estimated at around $110 million by Celebrity Net Worth. He now plays for the Boston Celtics: on 6 July 2026 the Philadelphia 76ers traded him, two first-round picks and two second-round picks to Boston for Jaylen Brown (NBA.com). He moved with the four-year, $211.6 million contract he signed with Philadelphia in 2024, which pays him $54,126,380 in 2026–27. The 2025–26 season was the most costly of his career off the court: the NBA suspended him for 25 games on 31 January 2026 for violating the terms of the NBA/NBPA Anti-Drug Program, and he forfeited $11,742,293 in salary.
Apart from basketball, George has a deep passion for fishing, which was taught to him by his father. He also enjoys video gaming: during the NBA’s 2020 shutdown he reported spending 30–40 hours a week on games, a habit that later grew into the streaming and podcasting work covered below.

Paul George Net Worth
Paul George’s net worth is estimated at approximately $110 million by Celebrity Net Worth, the most widely cited figure for him and the one this article uses. Treat it as an estimate rather than a verified balance: no public filing discloses an NBA player’s assets. It sits well below his salary history, which is normal: Spotrac counts $406.2 million in NBA pay through 2025–26, and that is a gross figure, before federal and state income tax, agent fees and the cost of living at this level.
His contract averages $52.9 million a year, and his 2026–27 base salary is $54,126,380 per Spotrac, the 11th-highest in the league on our list of the highest-paid NBA players for 2026–27. Celebrity Net Worth puts his endorsement income at a further $8–10 million a year.

NBA Contracts and Career Earnings
Spotrac lists Paul George’s career NBA earnings through the 2025–26 season at $406,203,976. That total counts his full 2025–26 salary of $51,666,090, so it does not subtract the $11,742,293 he forfeited during his suspension; net of that, he has collected about $394.5 million in NBA salary. Earlier versions of this article gave a range of $355–406 million and described the low end as salary actually paid. That was wrong: $354.5 million is simply his Spotrac total through 2024–25, one season out of date.
In 2024 he signed a four-year, $211,584,940 contract with Philadelphia, fully guaranteed, averaging $52,896,235 a year, with a player option for 2027–28. The deal carried a 15% trade bonus, but when Boston acquired him he waived it, giving up about $3.9 million and keeping his cap hit at $54.1 million (Boston.com, citing ESPN’s Bobby Marks). He arrives in Boston alongside Jayson Tatum, while Brown joins Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey in Philadelphia.
Total Career Earnings
| Seasons | Team | Salary paid |
|---|---|---|
| 2010–11 to 2016–17 | Indiana Pacers | $61,391,831 |
| 2017–18 to 2018–19 | Oklahoma City Thunder | $50,069,658 |
| 2019–20 to 2023–24 | LA Clippers | $193,870,597 |
| 2024–25 to 2025–26 | Philadelphia 76ers | $100,871,890 |
| Career total | — | $406,203,976 |
| 2026–27 | Boston Celtics | $54,126,380 (current season) |
| 2027–28 | Boston Celtics | $56,586,670 (player option) |
Data sourced from Spotrac. The career total is gross salary before the $11,742,293 suspension forfeiture. The four team rows add up to it exactly; the two Boston rows are still to be paid.
If he plays out the rest of the contract, he stands to add another $110.7 million in gross salary across 2026–27 and the 2027–28 option year. That is the contract, not a forecast of his net worth: it assumes he stays healthy, avoids further discipline and picks up the option. His 2026 suspension is a reminder that the guaranteed column and the collected column are not the same thing — a gap that hit Terry Rozier far harder the same season, and one that Jimmy Butler has largely avoided across a comparable career span.
Endorsements Deals
Celebrity Net Worth estimates his endorsement income at $8–10 million a year; the companies do not disclose the terms. Nike is the core of it. George signed with Nike before his rookie season in 2010, and his PG signature line launched in 2017. That line ended with the PG 6: George said his signature deal covered six shoes, though he remains a Nike athlete and the brand planned retro releases of earlier models (Sports Illustrated, January 2024). An earlier version of this article said the line had reached its 14th model in 2025, which was false.
Per-brand figures that circulate online for his other partnerships, typically $1–2 million each, trace to no published source and have been removed from this article.

Media Ventures
During the COVID-19 lockdown, Paul George started streaming Call of Duty games to pass the time. In 2023 he launched Podcast P with Wave Sports + Entertainment, a weekly show he co-hosts with Jackie Long and Dallas Rutherford. Download numbers and revenue for the show have not been published, so this article does not put a value on it.
Investments
Paul George has bought several luxury homes during his NBA career. His largest is in Pacific Palisades: in September 2019 he paid about $16.1 million for a 10,000-square-foot house previously owned by DeAndre Jordan (Celebrity Net Worth). The house survived the January 2025 Palisades Fire: George confirmed it was still standing, roughly two blocks from the burn zone, while his family was already based in Philadelphia. He sold his Hidden Hills home in 2020 at a profit, but the Indianapolis property resulted in a loss (source).
| Property | Location | Purchase Year | Purchase Price | Current/Sale Price | Profit/Loss | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pacific Palisades | Los Angeles, CA | 2019 | $16.1M | No published valuation | — | Currently owned |
| Hidden Hills | Los Angeles, CA | 2016 | $7.4M | $8.4M (2020) | +$1.0M (+13.51%) | Sold to French Montana |
| Indianapolis | Indiana | 2013 | $2.05M | $1.5M (2019) | –$0.55M (–26.83%) | Sold at a loss |
Earlier versions of this article carried a current value of $23.76 million for the Palisades house and projected future valuations. Those have been removed: they were not attributable to any published appraisal, and post-fire pricing across the neighbourhood is too unsettled to estimate responsibly.

Car Collection
George is a well-known Ferrari fan. His first, an F430 Spider, was bought on eBay during his rookie year in 2010 (source). Figures that circulate for the value and size of his whole car collection are not sourced and are not repeated here.
Paul George’s Philanthropy
George’s charity work grew out of the fishing trips he took with his father as a boy. While with the Thunder, his foundation sponsored a fishing programme in Oklahoma City schools, as the Associated Press reported in December 2017. An earlier version of this article cited a Players Philanthropy Fund page and specific donation amounts; that page no longer exists and the figures have been removed.
Personal Life
Paul George’s wife is Daniela Rajic, and they have three children. They met in 2013 and had several issues, but later got back together. Paul proposed in 2020 and married in 2022. Their wedding was followed by a grand celebration in Italy, attended by several NBA players (source).
Updated 7 October 2026: rewritten after George’s July 2026 trade to the Boston Celtics, verified against NBA.com, Wikipedia and Spotrac’s transaction log. Career earnings, the team-by-team table and the suspension forfeiture ($11,742,293) are from Spotrac; the waived trade bonus is from Boston.com citing ESPN. The end of the PG signature line was verified against Sports Illustrated. Property prices are from Celebrity Net Worth and the Los Angeles Times. Net worth reflects Celebrity Net Worth’s published $110 million estimate and is not an audited figure.
