A newly released study has revealed that OnlyFans creators earned more income in 2023 than NBA players.

According to research by the website Basketball Forever, based on data from ESPN, OnlyFans creators earned $6.6 billion in 2023. NBA players, meanwhile, earned less than the OnlyFans stars, with a total income of $4.9 billion. According to the study, the income of OnlyFans creators is $1.7 billion higher than that of NBA players.

As reported by Unilad, Steph Curry was the highest-paid player in the NBA in 2023 with a salary of $51,915,615. The Golden State Warriors increased star player Curry's salary to $55,761,216 in 2024.

According to the data, Curry was followed in 2023 by Phoenix Suns star Kevin Durant with a salary of $47,649,433. Basketball legend LeBron James followed the two players with earnings of $47,607,350.

Following the publication of the study, basketball fans reacted to the situation on their social media accounts. Some fans argued that NBA players' salaries are less than what they deserve.

On the other hand, social media users pointed out that while there are 600 players in the NBA, there are 2.1 million creators on OnlyFans, arguing that the comparison is 'absurd'.
