    Which Boston Celtics alum is the NBA’s biggest career earner from Nashville, Tennessee? While this Celtics alum is not the only top-five earner from Nashville, he is the leader in NBA career earnings from the city. And he might be tough to guess, given he only played a total of 8 games with Boston before he was dealt to the Phoenix Suns.

    If that was not enough to make it clear who we are talking about, it is big man Brandan Wright, who took home $39,928,084 in his time in the league per HoopsHype. He’s unlikely to keep that spot for very long with James Wiseman breathing down his neck with $39,619,840 earned to date with an active career.

    After Wiseman is Ron Mercer with $35,230,160 earned in the Association, the other Celtics alum on this list.

    The last two of the top five is closed out by Jodie Meeks with $31,090,760 earned, and John Jenkins with $6,394,399.
