Expensive Cars of NBA Legend Kyrie Irving

If the reports are to be believed, this NBA star player owns a net asset close to $90 million. Apart from that, the legendary basketball player is also known for endorsing Pepsi, Panini, and Nike, adding another $17 million to his primary earnings. Apart from earning the majority of his wealth from endorsements, the celebrity is also reported to sign a deal of around $37 million for the 2023 NBA season. We believe buying expensive cars like Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon and then wrapping himself up with a US flag for posing in front of the camera is no big deal for a millionaire NBA player. Apart from that, the celebrity also owns a Ferrari 458 Italia, an Audi R8 GT performance coupe, and two Lamborghini Aventadors in his collection. It is believed that the second Aventador from Lamborghini he owns is an SV Roadster 


 

5. Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon

Earning a heavy reliability score of 2.5 out of 5 from JD Power, the Unlimited Rubicon from Jeep Wrangler is definitely one of the best picks in the celebrity’s car collection. The celebrity has been seen snapped with his 4-door lifted-roof white SUV with the US flag wrapped over him. The unlimited Wrangler is always ready to roll over various off-road without minimum discomfort.
