Well, it doesn’t appear as if Nike wants James Harden as badly as adidas. Last week, adidas offered the free agent sneaker endorser a hefty $200 million over 13 years. Nike had the right to match but according to TMZ, they do not plan on doing so. Harden will easily become the new face of their basketball brand.
Sources connected to Nike tell us the company has decided it won’t try to top the $200 million deal Adidas offered Harden last week. As we’ve reported … Nike had concerns about sinking that much dough into just ONE player, when it has several other superstars to sign.
