MORE STATS ON ATHLETE'S WORTH:
Earvin "Magic" Johnson Jr. is a resigned American ball player and business visionary who has total assets of $600 million. Magic Johnson was conceived on August fourteenth, 1959 in Lansing, Michigan. His dad, Earving Sr. dealt with a General Motors sequential construction system and his mom Christine was a school janitor. Magic became hopelessly enamored with b-ball at an early age watching his legends like Earl Monroe. Johnson went to Everett High School where he joined the b-ball group as fast as possible. A nearby sportswriter begat the moniker "Magic" when at 15 years old he scored a triple-twofold with 36 focuses, 18 bounce back, and 16 helps. The name was cemented his senior year when he drove his group to the state title.
Johnson had offers from each and every prominent school, however, chose to remain nearby to home and go to Michigan State University. In 1979, Magic drove his group to the NCAA finals where they confronted Indiana State University and their star player Larry Bird. Their go head to head turned into the most-watched school b-ball game at any point broadcast and propelled one of the best competitions in sports history. Michigan State went ahead to overcome Indiana and Johnson was named Most Outstanding Player of the Final Four.
Magic was the primary general pick of 1979 draft, picked by The Los Angeles Lakers. In his freshman season, Magic and partner Kareem Abdul-Jabbar drove The Lakers to the NBA title where Magic was named the MVP of the NBA Finals. Johnson would go ahead to win four more titles for The Lakers, three MVP grants, 12 top pick appearances and that's just the beginning. He is viewed as the best point watch ever. Magic's profession was stopped by his 1991 compression of the HIV infection. He showed up in the alliance, however, resigned for the last time in 1996.
