Giannis Antetokounmpo And Nike Reveal Signature Sneaker

Giannis not only has become one of the best players in this league, his advertising value also has exploded.

Before the start of he 2018-19 season, Antetokounmpo signed a multi-year deal with Nike, ending a bidding war between Nike and Adidas that went on for weeks. While the exact contract terms had not been publically announced, it is certain that this new/current endorsement deal is worth much more than the previous rookie contract.

Last year, CEO Mark Parker made public that Nike will add Giannis to their ‘signature basketball athlete’ tier, meaning for the Greek Freak to get a signature shoe and become the first foreign-born player with a signature Nike shoe.

Fast forward to today. During a Nike event in Giannis’ hometown of Athens, Greece, the new sneaker has been revealed. The Air Zoom Freak 1. We’ve got an exclusive first look! Check it out.
