I'm not as familiar with Sportico, but they do have a couple of F1 drivers in the Top 100 (19: Lewis Hamilton and 30: Max Verstappen).

They didn't crack the top 10 in Sportico's list: https://www.sportico.com/personalities/athletes/2022/100-highest-paid-athletes-in-the-world-2022-full-list-1234674901/

u/carthous I'm still thinking about this so def. want to dig further into it, but for now here's the NBA's official comms used to put the visual together: https://www.nba.com/news/nba-rosters-international-players-2022-23

u/eric5014 I'm going to have to dig into that since it's bugging me now lol but I leveraged the NBA's official comms to put it together: https://www.nba.com/news/nba-rosters-international-players-2022-23

Thanks u/eric5014 - the NBA itself is considered an American league even though one of its teams sits in Canada.

u/carthous Thanks for your reply! The NBA league itself is American. While Toronto is the only team not located in the US, it falls under the umbrella of the NBA which is American.
