In the modern NBA, players can amass massive wealth even if they don’t become stars. Trevor Ariza is an excellent example of this. He carved out an 18-year career for himself in the league, won a championship with the Los Angeles Lakers, and made upwards of $100 million in salary alone. However, Ariza recently filed a plea in court for lower child support payments, citing that he can no longer afford a luxury lifestyle.
“Ex-Lakers star Trevor Ariza told the court he is in the process of reducing his monthly expenses — because he can no longer afford his once lavish lifestyle after retiring from the NBA,” reported Ryan Naumann of RadarOnline. “According to court documents obtained by RadarOnline, Ariza, who retired in 2022, said he currently has no average monthly income.
“Ariza and his estranged wife Bree Anderson are in the middle of a nasty divorce. She has demanded he pays her monthly child support for their two kids. Bree said the support should be sufficient so that she could maintain the extravagant life she had while married.
“She said during the marriage they had private chefs, a household staff, Rolls Royce vehicles, real estate and business holdings, and a massive 5-bedroom, 7-bathroom residence in Playa Vista.”

Trevor Ariza Revealed His Expenses During The Court Battle Between The Two
Trevor Ariza’s wife revealed that her expenses are over $50,000 per month, which is what she is asking for from him. However, he shared during the case about his huge expenses, which were also revealed.
“His monthly expenses include $13k on rent, $1,400 on maintenance, $8,900 on childcare, $1,500 on groceries, $3k on eating out, $550 on utilities, $3,500 for clothes, $12k on entertainment and gifts, $1,600 on auto expenses, and $22k on monthly installment plans.”
Trevor Ariza had a successful career in the NBA, his career earnings are over $116 million in salary alone. It would be wild if he had blown through a massive chunk of that cash thanks to his luxurious lifestyle. It’s hard to say what the outcome will be in court, but Ariza could be forced to sell some of his assets if things don’t go his way.
