Best Answer

In the United States, professional sports' salaries in NFL football, MLB Baseball and NBA Basketball can run into the $20 million per year range. Because baseball players can remain "star" players longer then star players in the two other major sports, there can be a greater tendency to see extremely high salary packages for star performers. As an example, the National League team, Miami Marlins just closed a $327 million, 13 year contract with a 25 year old player on their team. Without a doubt, such a longterm, and expensive salary contract will never be seen by a 25 year old basketball or football star in US professional sports.

Each of the three major professional sports will have a certain number of extremely high salary deals. With that said, professional baseball players have a greater chance of having the lion's share of these multi million dollar deals.
