LaMelo Ball is reportedly close to signing a multi-year footwear and apparel endorsement contract with PUMA, according to Shams Charania of The Athletic.
The potential No. 1 overall pick in the 2020 NBA Draft was expected to field offers from several different apparel companies.
The terms of the contract are not yet known but a report surfaced late last year stating that Ball was offered a $100 million endorsement contract by a shoe company.
The unknown brand also apparently offered Ball a private jet as part of the deal, though it is unclear if that company was PUMA.
Ball will join a brand attempting to strengthen its place in the basketball community as PUMA has signed the likes of Kyle Kuzma, Terry Rozier and several others
