Recently, according to ESPN reporter NICK DEPAULA, various manufacturers have started a quotation war against Zion Williamson. Currently, six brands including Nike , Adidas , Under Armour , Puma, New Balance and Anta have joined the Zion battle.
"In my life, I think this will be the biggest bidding war ever," said Sonny Vaccaro, a well-known former marketing specialist who has played for Nike, Adidas and Reebok. "I will put other rookies aside."
Previously, on April 1, Beijing time, Duke lost to Michigan 67-68 in the 8-to-4 game, and was eliminated. Zhaien made 10 of 19 shots, scored 24 points, 14 rebounds, 2 assists, 3 steals and 3 blocks, ending his 2019 college basketball journey. In the entire freshman season of NCAA, Zhaien averaged 30.0 minutes per game, scoring 22.6 points, 8.9 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 1.8 blocks and 2.1 steals. In the four games of the Championship, Zhaien averaged 26 points, 8.5 rebounds, and a shooting percentage of 61.6%.
If you want to recall the last player who shocked the whole country so much, you will also talk about LeBron James , which was picked by Cleveland in 2003. Before the draft, James signed a seven-year, $87 million contract with Nike, while , Durant, received a seven-year, $70 million offer from Adidas in the draft, but eventually joined hands with Nike on a seven-year, $60 million contract.
Therefore, judging from the cases of James and Durant, Zion, who is talented to become the face of the future league, will not offer any lower than James at that time.
"Seriously, looking at the past 50 years, Zion made me feel like 1984." 79-year-old Sonny Vaccaro, who signed with Nike and created the "Flying Man" series by operating Jordan that year, said, "Zion will have the opportunity to become the spokesperson for every company and every big company. He is the most marketable person I have ever seen, for many different reasons."
Previously, after the shoe-breaking incident caused Nike's stock price to fall, Williamson finally missed six games in a sprained right knee, and then wore Kyrie Irving's fourth signature shoe. It is worth mentioning that this is an enhanced version specially provided by Nike.
However, since Zhai En just lost the NCAA Championship and has not signed an agent yet, there is still too much uncertainty in his career.
"There is a great possibility that I will participate in this year's draft, and I can't tell you what my future will be like now. I won't officially announce now that there are many senior players who will enter the professional league, and you have to enjoy every season because every season's people are changing." After losing the game, Zion responded to the draft in an interview.
may be a good choice to go with Team USA this summer. On April 2, according to New York Post reporter Marc Stein, several sources revealed that the US men's basketball team is interested in recruiting popular rookies , Zion Williamson, and to enter the roster of teams to go to the 2019 China Basketball World Cup.
Previously, after the FIBA allowed professional players to participate in the Olympics and World Championships in 1992, Christian Leitner, who also graduated from Duke University, became the only college student in the United States " Dream Team " in 1992. It is worth mentioning that Jordan also participated in the Olympic Games held in Los Angeles before the 1984 draft and won a gold medal.
Nowadays, Zhai is expected to become the next college player to represent the United States in the Basketball World Cup.
This means that if he can come to China, Anta, who has tasted the sweetness of Klay Thompson, will launch a fierce pursuit of him. You should know that Anta also signed Celtics forward Gordon Hayward and formed a consortium to acquire Archaeopter Bird. His international ambition has long been made public, so Zion will also become the target of domestic brands.
However, being selected for the US training roster does not mean that Tsai En must wear the US team's jersey. Judging from the current news, this No. 1 pick may not participate in the draft too early because of dissatisfaction with the NBA team that is expected to draw the No. 1 pick.Therefore, there are still too many questions about what happened to this college student who caused a sensation across the United States in the future.
