Mayo Signs With Nike

[MapleLeaf]

From realgm.com

Maverick Carter, O.J. Mayo’s marketing agent, confirmed this morning that Mayo has signed a four-year deal with Nike.

Mayo is the first of the high-profile draft picks who will be drafted on Thursday, to have signed a deal. Carter would not comment on the financial terms of the deal.

“It’s a great deal,” said Carter, who also worked with Mayo’s new CAA agent Leon Rose on the shoe contract. “This is the best company for him. There was discussions with other brands about giving him more money if he was drafted into a bigger market like New York or Los Angeles, but Nike showed they really wanted him because they didn’t care what market he was in.”

If I were an NBA player, I'd try to sign with someone like DC or Circa lol. Open up their basketball market lol.

I don't like how everyone goes with the same sponsors.

Its probably the money, I dont think most shoes companies can match contracts with the bigger markets.

He'll get his own shoe, IMO he;s gunna be a bigger star than Durant and he has his own shoe.

Thats probably true, but I'd take a pay cut to be differet, its not like these guys can't live off these contracts.

I doubt he'll be bigger than Durant. Durant was like player of the year as a freshmen in college, plus went to a team where there was no one. Mayo is no Durant.

And anyone else can get their own shoe too! Nike ID its quick, its easy, its painless. Customize your very own shoe.
