17. Yao Ming – $160 Million
Yao Ming is the most popular Chinese player in the NBA and is the only player not of American descent to lead in NBA All-Star votes. Yao is a gifted player, and it is, therefore, no surprise that Celebrity Net Worth has detailed his current net worth to sit at an average of $160 million. The achievements garnered by this player are immense, but above all, we can imagine how much he desires to be home.

This feeling is quite evident as one year, he was given a two-dollar gift for the Chinese New Year. Yao notes he still has one of the dollars in his pocket, and he generally takes it everywhere as it gives him the promise that he is taking home with him wherever he goes.
