22. Derrick Rose ($34M)
Age: 28
After seven seasons playing for Chicago, the Bulls traded Rose to the Knicks in July. Injuries have derailed the career of the former MVP and No. 1 overall draft pick. He has one season left on the five-year, $95 million deal he signed with the Bulls at the end of 2011. Rose is one of the NBA's top earners off the court thanks a 13-year Adidas deal worth up to $185 million.
CR7 is 31 years old.
