Cleveland Cavaliers star guard James Harden has joined an extremely exclusive club with the new three-year, $97 million deal he signed with the Cavs.
The deal pushed Harden's career contract earnings above $500 million dollars. He becomes just the fourth player in NBA history to reach that amount of money. The other three are LeBron James, Steph Curry and Kevin Durant. Not bad company for Harden.

It's worth noting that Harden is the only one of the four players who has made over $500 million in career earnings who has never won a championship. James, Curry and Durant all won multiple titles over the course of their careers.
More to come.
