Blake Griffin is one of the most underrated players in the NBA who never reached their full potential because of an injury-prone career. He recently announced his retirement from professional basketball by posting a letter on his official Instagram account.
Griffin was a professional basketball player in the NBA, so he earned a lot of money during his time in the biggest basketball league in the world. He played for the Los Angeles Clippers for most of his career, building a name for himself. Later, he moved to Detroit to play for the Pistons and ended his career after playing for the Celtics.
In his 14-year-long career, Blake Griffin signed many contracts that affected his net worth. According to Salarysport.com, the current net worth of the 35-year-old is $62 million. Griffin crossed the $100 million mark in his net worth during his {in the NBA. However, as time passed, his net worth decreased along with the value of the contracts he signed.
Griffin’s injury-prone nature was the prime reason for this decrease in his value. He received less game time on his teams, while other teams lost interest in acquiring him. However, these ups and downs of his career don’t change the fact that he had a great time in the NBA. The former Clippers star is a 6 time NBA All-Star and has also won the Rookie of the Year award. In his recent retirement letter, he was very thankful for the 14 years he spent in the NBA.
