Earlier today it was reported that both Trae Young & Lonnie Walker IV are not a part of the adidas Basketball family. Both players are expected to be highly-coveted lottery picks at this year’s NBA Draft.
The newest members of adidas Basketball will each bring their one-of-a-kind game and personality to adidas’s progressive footwear and apparel basketball brand.
Trae and Lonnie will play an instrumental role in driving performance insights, in addition to creating deeper connections within basketball communities across the globe. They will also be featured in upcoming brand campaigns and activations.
Player Profiles:
Trae Young
Humble and hungry. This family-oriented freshman took the nation by storm his first year at Oklahoma, becoming the first player in NCAA history to lead the nation in both points (27.4) and assists (8.7) per game. Trae may be quiet off the court but certainly makes noise when he laces up. He?s an electric player who creates with finesse, sharp-shooting and dynamic handles, looking to redefine the game on his own terms.
Lonnie Walker IV
Raw talent. Lonnie quickly made a name for himself in his freshman year at Miami with dominating feats of athleticism. He?s a leave you in the dust, head above the rim type of showstopper. With the game on the line, Lonnie is going to be his opponent?s worst nightmare and take matters into his own hands. Explosive scoring, unrivaled work ethic and creativity in the paint is what will elevate Walker to the next level.
