“BE THE 12TH MAN!”
NEW YORK — Playing basketball is only an income supplement for superstars like Chicago Bulls guard Michael Jordan.
Jordan tops Forbes magazine's third annual ranking of the world's highest-paid athletes.
The really big money comes from product endorsements, which earned Jordan an estimated $32 million in 1992, in addition to the $3.9 million he made for playing. Forbes said in its ranking of 40 top athletes, released yesterday.
Jordan's contract with Nike Inc. for about $20 million is the most lucrative in sports. Deals with Wilson Sporting Goods, Gatorade, General Mills, McDonald's and other companies make up the rest of his income.

Jordan, 29. will not even consider any offer under $1 million, said his agent David Falk.
Gopher Fred Couples, another addition to the list at No. 21, is expected to earn about $1.5 million for playing this year, the largest amount in his career. He will earn another $5.5 million with salary and bonuses from endorsement deals on clubs, clothes and other items.
Since first appearing on the Forbes
The highest-ranking woman on the list is tennis star Monica Seles, winner of the Australian, French and U.S. Opens this year. She is 10th with earnings of $8.5 million.
Listed as No. 2 is world heavyweight champion Evander Hollyfield, with earnings of $28 million. Auto racers Ayton Syrena and Nigel Mansell are third and fourth, with Senna earning $22 million and Mansell $14.5 million.
Golfing great Arnold Palmer makes most of his money from endorsements and is fifth with $11.1 million.
Bobby Bonilla of the New York Mets joined the list with an estimated $6 million in earnings, most of it from his baseball salary.

The minimum annual income needed to make this year's best-paid athletes list grew from $3.9 million to $4.6 million, knocking a few names off the list from last year. A few dropped off for other reasons.
For example, former heavyweight champion Mike Tyson, one of the highest-paid endorsers last year, is in jail on a rape conviction. Basketball star Larry Bird retired, and teen-age tennis prodigy Jennifer Capriati had a claustor season.
Jim Courier, the world's No. 1 men's tennis player, is the highest-paid newcomer to *Forbes*' list. He Is N. 9 with an income of $9 million, only a third of it from playing tennis. Courier recently signed a deal with Nike worth about $4 million a year, joining rival Andre Agassi as the company's highest-paid tennis endorser.
The perennial All-Pro linebacker and NFL career leader in sacks completely ruptured his right Achilles' tendon in the third quarter of yesterday's 27-7 victory against the Green Bay Packers. The recovery period for such an injury is about four months.
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — Lawrence Taylor's stellar career with the New York Giants appears to be over.
Giants' Taylor ruptures Achilles tendon; injury may end career
Taylor announced earlier this year that he was retiring at the end of the season. He left Giants Stadium before the end of the game wearing a cast.
"It was a complete tear," team physician Russell Warren said. "We'll perform the surgery early this week.

"I would expect a full recovery in this type of athletic injury. It shouldn't be the reason he does not come back"
list in 1909, Jordan has earned $60 million.
Former Giants coach Bill Parcells, now an announcer on NBC-TV, said, "In deference to all the great players I have coached, I would have to say that Lawrence Taylor is the greatest player I ever coached."
Warren said it was the first time in the last 10 years that a Giants player had suffered a torn Achilles' tendon. He added that the artificial turf had nothing to do with the injury.

"I'm saddened that Lawrence has to end his career on a golf cart going out of Giants Stadium."
Taylor was an All-Pro for his first 10 seasons in the NFL. He did not make the team last year for the first time in his career.
Giants coach Ray Handley said Taylor was disappointed that he would not be able to play golf tomorrow.
"He was in a lot of pain. Initially, I heard when Carl (Banks) came off the field, he mentioned what he thought the injury was, or what Lawrence diagnosed himself."
said. "It looked like he was in traffic, and I don't know if anybody fell on him.
Taylor was carted off the field with 1-14 left in the third quarter. He blocked a pass by Green Bay's Brett Favre and did not get off the turf. Players gathered around Taylor, then he was taken away, to chants of "LT" from the crowd.
Taylor, playing his 12th season with the Giants, had two tackles, two assists, one sack and blocked two passes against Green Bay.
"I lost sight of Lawrence," Handley
"He was in a lot of pain," defensive lineman Leonard Marshall said. "He was screaming and complaining and worried about his leg."
