Looks like Austin is going to be super media savvy too and kick a** big time financially off the court too. Hold “HIS” beer with endorsement offers …. I would bet.
Kudos to whoever had the vision to recognize what they potentially had in AR early and locked him up for a shoe deal.
He’s going to be HUGE in China with that brand! (even though f*** China [not the average Joes]) Just a truly “exciting player” to watch play the game of basketball. And not because he’s a freak athlete! Because he plays the game the right way and has an ever increasing mastery of its many skills …. especially that most NASTY of crossovers and his spectacular passing and his absolute clutchness and fearlessness at the highest levels of competition.
That’s pretty cool! AND … LeBron (at least, maybe AD too[?]) …. let the front office know after LeBron’s unofficial camp in Vegas when AR was an undrafted rookie on a 2-way know that they needed to sign him to an actual contract. Scoreboard LBJ!!
