blow your mind

national basketball association

according to statista

all 30 teams in the nba generated 8.76

billion dollars in revenue for their

2018-2019 season

now that's a lot plus while some teams

had it bad

like the new york knicks who had a

tragic 17 wins for the last season

it still didn't affect their franchise

value

in fact it's the first time that all nba

teams reached a 1.3

billion dollar worth some even made more

according to a report from forbes each

nba team had increased their value by at

least

six percent while others made a 20

jump so which teams made it on top

well surprise surprise because the

knicks had reached a value of 4.6

billion dollars next is the los angeles

lakers with 4.4 billion

followed by the golden state warriors

4.3 billion

the chicago bulls with 3.2 billion and

the

boston celtics with 3.1 million dollars

now since the nba is privately owned

they don't really have to publicly

disclose their official earnings

now let's move on to the mlb

major league baseball in a report from

forbes

the mlb made a record-breaking 10.7

billion dollars in revenue now that's a

notch higher

than what the nba earned last season it

also signifies a huge increase from the

10.3 billion

they made in 2018. so

where does the mlb make the most of

their money

well thanks to the media rights deals

the league was able to make

money out of his partnership with fox

espn

and turner sports in fact turner sports

just signed an extension worth 5.1

billion dollars which covers until the

2028 season

the league's commissioner rob manfred

also confirmed that they are searching

for media partners to add to their

revenue

so which teams made the most money on

top of the list

is the new york yankees with a value of

5

billion all the dodgers and the red sox

are tied at 3.4 billion the cubs

also come into the top five with 3.2

billion and the

giants with 3.1 billion dollars

while most of the mlb franchises were

able to rake in cash this season

two teams reported negative growth in

their valuation

with the pirates falling one percent

valued at 1.26 billion

and the marlins which had a 2 decline

dropping their value to 980 million

so we've got the nba and the mlb covered

are you ready to hear the top

money-making league

national football league we get it

no one can beat the nfl when it comes to

bringing in cash

in fact darren ravel declared that the

league gave back

8.7 billion dollars to the teams in

revenue but get this

owners get 52 percent of football

related income

while the players get about 48

this means that the nfl made a total

revenue of nearly 17

billion dollars the nfl had 50 percent

of their entire revenue

in tv deals others include ticket sales

merchandising and licensing rights as

well as corporate sponsorships

so which team had the most value well

the dallas cowboys still take the top

spot with a value of 5.5

billion dollars and marking their 13th

consecutive year as the most

valuable team this is followed by the

new england patriots with 4.1 billion

dollars

and the new york giants with 3.9 billion

you also have the los angeles rams 3.8

billion

and finally the san francisco 49ers with

3.5 billion dollars

players while the nfl makes the most

money when it comes to revenue

the fight isn't over yet in fact

among the three nba players make the

most money with headline worthy deals

you can pretty much see the huge pay gap

between

nba and nfl players according to cnbc

the three main reasons for the pay gap

are league structure

salary caps and rules around guaranteed

money for players

plus while the nfl makes the most money

in the united states

nba players have a bigger fan base

outside of the us

which gives them the best endorsement

deals as compared to the other two

leagues

i mean who can beat the air jordans

right
