French basketball player Rudy Gobert dethroned Kylian Mbappé and Antoine Griezmann by signing his third contract with Utah for $ 205 million or € 170 million.
By winning the third biggest contract in the history of the NBA, the French pivot Rudy Gobert is the highest paid French sportsman in the world. He has, in fact, extended his contract with the NBA of Utah Jazz for the sum of approximately 170 million euros. The Frenchman of 2.16 m will receive a little more than 33 million euros per year for five years. “It shows that people believe in me“, he reacted.
The basketball player thus dethrones the two football world champions, Antoine Griezmann and Kylian Mbappé.
“Rudy Gobert was twice voted best defender of the year. Defensively, he is the best player in the world“, said George Eddy, Franco-American sports journalist.
