Former Duke basketball star Jayson Tatum makes Forbes 30 Under 30 list

Boston Celtics star and former Duke Blue Devil Jayson Tatum was featured in the most recent edition of Forbes 30 under 30.

The Duke men’s basketball program has produced many stars over the years, but not many are bigger right now than [autotag]Jayson Tatum[/autotag] of the Boston Celtics.

Coming off of his first NBA championship, his second Olympic gold medal, and a massive contract extension, Tatum is on top of the NBA world right now. As a result, he was named to the newest Forbes’ 30 under 30 at 26 years old.

Tatum’s new deal, which he signed in July, included $314 million over five years, and Forbes estimated in his profile that he brings in $13 million per year outside of the NBA. Jordan Brand unveiled his third signature shoe in September.

Even outside of endorsement deals, the former third overall pick will be the cover star for NBA 2K25 after he recently starred in the Netflix documentary ‘Starting 5’ released in October.

Simply, Tatum has it made, and the former Blue Devil isn’t done yet, either.
