Kris Humphries is a former professional basketball player from the United States, now retired, with an estimated net worth of $35 million. During his basketball career, Humphries gained recognition for his time with several NBA teams, including the Utah Jazz (2004–2006), Toronto Raptors (2006–2009), Dallas Mavericks (2009–2010), New Jersey/Brooklyn Nets (2010–2013), Boston Celtics (2013–2014), Washington Wizards (2014–2016), Phoenix Suns (2016), and Atlanta Hawks (2016–2017). Beyond basketball, he is widely remembered as the former spouse of reality television personality Kim Kardashian, with their union lasting just 72 days. Humphries contributed to the U.S. basketball team, securing a bronze medal at the 2002 Isla Margarita FIBA Americas U18 Championship. He entered the NBA after being selected as the 14th overall pick by the Utah Jazz in the 2004 draft. His tenure with the Brooklyn Nets included notable contracts, such as a one-year deal worth $8 million in 2011 and a two-year agreement totaling $24 million in 2012. Humphries concluded his NBA career in 2019 after playing professionally for over a decade. While primarily known for his athletic achievements, he also made appearances on television shows like "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" (2011), "Kourtney & Kim Take New York" (2011–2012), "The Mindy Project" (2013), and "Million Dollar Listing Los Angeles" (2015). Throughout his NBA journey, Humphries accumulated $62 million in salary earnings. Humphries excelled in high school basketball at Hopkins High School, guiding his team to a Minnesota state championship—an accomplishment that ended a nearly 50-year drought for the school. His high school performances earned him accolades, including being named state player of the year by "College Basketball News" and the "Minneapolis Star Tribune," as well as being selected to the Second Team All-USA by "USA Today." Rivals.com ranked him as the 15th best player and second-best power forward in the class of 2003. Initially committing to Duke, Humphries later chose to attend college at the University of Minnesota, his father’s alma mater. During his freshman year at the University of Minnesota, Humphries led the Big Ten Conference in both scoring and rebounding. He earned numerous honors, including Big Ten Freshman of the Year in 2004 and Honorable Mention All-America. Humphries was also named to the All-Big Ten First Team by coaches and media, setting new school records for the most points scored by a freshman in a single season (629) and the highest single-game score (36). Following this standout season, he opted to forgo further college eligibility and enter the NBA draft. On January 27, 2010, Humphries achieved a personal best with a 25-point performance against the Los Angeles Clippers. In the 2011 season, he consistently recorded double-doubles in rebounds and points, placing fifth in the NBA for rebounding. The Nets rewarded his contributions with a one-year contract worth $8 million in 2011. Later that same year, after the team relocated from New Jersey to New York and rebranded as the Brooklyn Nets, Humphries signed a two-year deal valued at $24 million. Despite this lucrative agreement, the Nets traded him to the Boston Celtics in June 2013, and he was subsequently dealt to the Washington Wizards in July 2014. In October 2014, Humphries underwent surgery to address nerve damage in one of his fingers after sustaining an injury during a preseason matchup against the Chicago Bulls. In February 2016, Humphries was traded to the Phoenix Suns, appearing in four games before joining the Atlanta Hawks on March 1st of that year. The Hawks offered him a one-year contract worth $4 million in July 2016. After the contract expired, Humphries signed with the Philadelphia 76ers in September 2017, playing in three preseason games before being released in mid-October. On March 26, 2019, he officially announced his retirement through a personal essay titled "I Never Wanted to Be That Guy," published in "The Player's Tribune." In 2006, Humphries acquired a lakeside property in Mound, Minnesota, spanning 4,716 square feet, for $1.649 million. He listed it for $1.65 million but later reduced the asking price to $1.586 million in March 2019. In 2018, he purchased a 4,542 square foot home in the Hollywood Hills for $7.495 million. He sold a remodeled Beverly Hills residence for $8.25 million in 2017, which he had acquired in 2015 for $6.2 million; this home covered 3,300 square feet. © 2026 Celebrity Net Worth / All Rights Reserved
