Russell Westbrook – Lamborghini Aventador
Known to be generous and among the highest-paid basketball players today, Russel Westbrook certainly deserves the best. His contract with the Oklahoma City Thunder is more than $28 million per year, and with that amount, he can easily afford the expensive insurance premiums of his luxury rides. He owns a Lamborghini Aventador, a vehicle with a power output of 700 horsepower. This supercar is one of the fastest cars. Apart from the Aventador, he also has a 2017 Cadillac ATS-V. Luckily enough, as part of a marketing partnership, he also received a new car from Kia, which he generously gave to a single mother who needed it more.
Chris Paul – Bentley Continental GT
As a basketball star, Houston Rockets player, Chris Paul, always drives in style. You probably won’t see him in an ordinary car–indeed he has been frequently seen driving his Bentley Continental GT. This classy coupe is capable of many things. Under the hood of the Continental GT is a W12 twin turbo-charged engine, rated for power equal to 552 braking horsepower. It can also go from 0 to 62 in just 4.8 seconds. When the gas is floored, the Continental GT can reach a maximum of 197 mph. Chris is also a proud owner of a Jeep JKU Wrangler Unlimited.
Anthony Davis – Mercedes-Benz S550
At the young age of 27, Anthony Davis, who plays center for the New Orleans Pelicans, is already earning a lot of money. He started his basketball career young, while still pursuing a degree at the University of Kentucky. At this time, his collection of vehicles was not yet that extensive. But now, he owns some of the best rides in town. He was seen driving a Dodge Challenger, a Porsche Cayenne, and his favorite Mercedes-Benz S550. The S550 is a champion like him and has been the flagship sedan for Mercedes-Benz since 1972. It is among the top luxury cars and features a twin-turbocharged V8 engine. This machine can produce up to 455 horsepower, making it among the most muscular vehicles out there.
Giannis Antetokounmpo – BMW i8 Coupe
While his last name can be a mouthful to pronounce, his choice of car is pretty straightforward. Giannis owns a hybrid BMW i8 that saves on gas. This coupe is futuristic and compliments his $3 million salary per year. The i8 has an all-electric range of 23 miles, making it among the cleanest and most efficient among the fleet. Under its hood is a B38 engine plus an electric motor. It is extremely powerful as it can run from 0 to 62 in just 4.5 seconds using both sources of power. Whoever says fuel efficiency and speed cannot be combined has not seen an i8 yet.
Draymond Green – BMW i3
For GSW fans, Draymond Green is among the most well-loved basketball stars. He also loves his cars and knows much about them, too. He had made various investments, adding to his collections over the years. Among the vehicles he drives is a Mercedes-Benz coupe, a BMW M3 G-Power SKII Sporty Drive RS, and a Range Rover. He obviously has a preference for European brands. Also, inside his garage is a BMW i3. This hatchback has an electric powertrain, which certainly helps reduce carbon emissions. It is also fitted with a rear-wheel-drive that uses a single-speed transmission and is powered by a Lithium-ion battery pack. As a hybrid, it also has a gasoline engine to extend its range.
Wladimir Klitschko – Ferrari F12berlinetta
We have little information about his car collection, but Wladimir will, for sure, go for power and punch when selecting a vehicle. As a boxer, it is expected that he prefers muscle cars. He owns cars like a Mercedes CL, a Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG, a Jeep Wrangler, and a Ferrari F12berlinetta. The last one uses a 6.3 L V12 engine. With a torque of 509 lb/ft. It is given credit for being the fourth most powerful road car Ferrari has ever produced. Its engine is also fitted with a HELE start-stop system to make for fuel efficiency when the vehicle is idling.
Lennox Lewis – Aston Martin One-77
His prime may have already passed, but during his heyday, Lennox knew how to drive cars—like royalty. He owned a classic Bentley Azure, which is a large four-seat convertible that could, without doubt, fit his persona and anyone else he brings along. He also owned an Aston Martin Virage. But lately, he was seen in an Aston Martin One-77. There were only 77 units produced in the whole world. This two-door has 750 horsepower. In 2012, one of these got involved in an accident, which we do not want to happen to Lennox. Let us just hope everything is up to date on his insurance, for peace of mind.
Conor McGregor – Lamborghini Huracan Avio.
He is more of an MMA fighter than a boxer, but his stunt against Floyd Mayweather had put his name among boxers. He has a massive collection of the most unique cars. He is also biased towards Rolls Royce and Lamborghini. The vehicles in his garage include a Lamborghini Aventador Roadster, an Aventador he nicknamed “The Mutant,” and a Lamborghini Huracan Avio. The Huracan Avio is a limited edition vehicle that was first unveiled during the 2016 Geneva Motor Show. There were only 610 of these produced, which means only those with a great credit report can get them. It is fitted with a V10 engine and a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
Anthony Joshua – Jaguar XJR
He was propelled into boxing stardom when he won the Super Heavyweight Division during the 2012 London Olympics. Anthony Joshua is finally earning some money to top-up his investments. He was not really into cars, but he is an avid fan of the luxury car industry. He owns a sturdy Vauxhall Astra and a muscle car, Jaguar XJR. He also likes giving back, so he bought his mother a Range Rover. When asked which vehicle he likes the most, he said it was the XJR. In an interview, he shared that a super-charged engine powers his white vehicle, so when he is late for training, he just floors it and arrives on time.
Manny Pacquiao – Cadillac Escalade
Mayweather’s biggest threat, Manny Pacquiao, has some serious punch in terms of collecting cars. When he was exclusively in the boxing arena, Manny owned a mix of regular and supercars. Now that he is also a politician, a long way from the boy who had to resort to cash loans, he added two armored vehicles in his arsenal for protection. These two are a Cadillac Escalade and a Hummer H2. We do not know what modifications were done but as it is, a Cadillac is a fortress all by itself. The name literally means a siege warfare tactic of scaling defensive walls, with the aid of ladders. It is a full-sized SUV with a V8 under the hood, making sure Manny can be safely stowed inside and driven away.
