Roc Nation Sports announced that Under Armour made a $285 million dollar offer to the league MVP with strong incentives. The move put Nike, who currently endorses Durant, on notice. Hit the jump for details.
Kevin Durant is no dummy. He knows Nike is a huge company and the biggest athletic brand, but money talks cause you can only play ball for so long. With reports of Under Armour in negotiations with KD and possibly offering $30 million per year, it is very possible he will be leaving Nike and his KD’s behind for a new endeavor. This ad was just released by Nike and could be Durant’s last. Nike is still trying to hold on to him as well.
The past couple of years the popularity of Kevin Durant’s shoe line with Nike has grown exponentially coming second only to LeBron James in active players. He may switch things up however as Under Armour has reportedly made him a very lucrative offer.
