How Jayson Tatum Built His Multimillion-Dollar Brand On And Off The Court

It was a long time coming that Jayson Tatum led the Celtics to four conference finals and an NBA Finals loss before winning his first, and the franchise’s 18th, championship in June. “Being so close and sustaining such a level of success for so many years, I believed that we were going to do it,” says the five-time All-Star forward. Boston sports immortality wasn’t the only reward this fluid scorer and gritty defender received: He signed a fresh five-year, $314 million contract in July. It’s far from his first windfall. Over the years, Tatum has built a robust portfolio off the court, which Forbes estimates earns him $13 million annually and includes a sneaker deal with Nike’s Jordan Brand, the cover of 2K Sports’ latest NBA video game and a starring role in Netflix reality sries Starting 5. “Winning gets you in the door,” he says. He has also already made more than $121 million (pretax) on the court—money that his mom (yes, really) insists he mostly saves.br br 0:00 Introducing Jayson Tatumbr 1:32 On Winning The NBA Finalsbr 3:35 The Power Of Having A Core Group Of Teammatesbr 5:14 Tatum's Next Goalsbr 7:20 On Growing Up And His Mother's Influencebr 10:24 Famous Childhood Connectionsbr 13:54 Reflecting On The 2017 Draftbr 16:20 Inside Tatum's Portfolio Of Contracts, Brand Deals And Sponsorshipsbr 19:44 Getting His Own Jordan Brand Shoebr 22:00 On Legacybr br Subscribe to FORBES: br Fuel your success with Forbes.
