Damian Lillard has established his name as one of the greatest shooters of all time and an elite scorer of the league. Lillard has been playing for over a decade and has made himself a good enough wealth, looking at his business ventures and contracts. He already has an endorsement deal with Adidas in his sophomore year that was worth $100 million over a 10-year tenure. Not only that but the 32-year-old has also invested in quite a lot of companies, making him a fortune.
Apart from all his investments, endorsements, and other sources of income, Lillard had started a little business of his own. NBA players own quite some expensive cars, though none has the investments to sell them except Lillard. Damian has his own Toyota dealership about an hour away from his city. Toyota has over 1270 dealerships in the States, and one of them is owned by Blazers’ guard Lillard.
How much does Damian Lillard earn from his Toyota dealership?
Lillard started his own Toyota dealership in McMinnville, Oregon in October 2020. The dealership facility is pretty large and has a lot more than cars. The showroom also has a shoe collection signed by Lillard on display, basketball hoops, and even a play area for kids. Toyota is the most sold car brand in the US, and to have its dealership is a lot more profitable for Lillard. Considering his venture of this to have started in 2020, Lillard would’ve earned a lot of profit from the dealership so far.
Usually, an average dealership owner earns a 5-6 figure salary per year. Though we can expect Dame’s profit to be more than $100 thousand up to $400 thousand. Lillard has other ventures which have been thriving as well. Dame co-founded Move, a company that specializes in making insoles for shoes. He also invested in a digital sneaker marketplace, Kicks Crew back in October 2022. With all his business ventures off the court, Lillard’s net worth is estimated to be around $110 million.
Dame’s favorite hobby off the court is definitely producing music, as Dame Dolla has released three albums. His last album, Big D.O.L.L.A released in 2019 was listed in the Indie charts. Lillard is a serious rapper, having some of the famous artists featured on his tracks. It’s great to see an NBA player be as versatile as Lillard off the court. Not only is he an elite player, but Lillard has also made a name for himself in the music industry as well. It will be interesting to see what other ventures Dame decides to thrive on in the future.
