Former NBA star Paul Pierce has revealed his earnings as part of his ongoing child support dispute with ex-partner Princess Santiago.
According to court documents obtained by TMZ, Pierce averaged $128,000 per month in income during 2025 and about $165,000 per month through the first half of 2026.
The filings show he earned $1.5 million from Fox in 2025, plus another $713,000 from a separate show before it was canceled.
He also reported income from commissions, DraftKings royalties, Fanatics, NBA Properties and his YouTube show, “No Fouls Given.”
Pierce’s reported expenses for the first six months of 2026 included $121,000 in legal fees, along with travel, meals and security costs.
The financial disclosures are part of Pierce’s effort to challenge Santiago’s request for $30,000 per month in child support.
He argues the amount should be closer to $4,000, saying that while he made millions during his NBA career, his current earnings are significantly lower.
