Kevin Durant has reportedly already earned more than his 2026-27 salary with the Rockets, a little less than two months before the regular season kicks off.
According to Joe Pompliano, the renowned Sports and Business journalist, Kevin Durant's investment in Hugging Face has earned him a profit of approximately $60 million after Nvidia's recent acquisition of the business.
"Kevin Durant and his business partner, Rich Kleiman, invested in Hugging Face's seed & Series A fundraising rounds. Nvidia just acquired the company for $12.9 billion, and since I'm told Durant invested $100,000 in the seed round and $150,000 in the Series A, he likely made more than $60 million on this investment alone," Pompliano wrote on X.
"That is one of the best athlete investments ever (and more money than Durant will make playing in the NBA this season)," he further added.
Kevin Durant is set to earn $43.9 million for the 2026-27 NBA season with the Rockets. This investment has already yielded him more than that.
