Nunn will join R.J. Barrett, Michael Porter Jr. and Kevin Porter Jr. as rookies to sign with the apparel company.

Miami Heat rookie Kendrick Nunn has reportedly signed a multi-year footwear and apparel endorsement deal with PUMA, according to Nick DePaula of ESPN.

The undrafted guard will become the latest rookie to ink a deal with PUMA, joining R.J. Barrett, Michael Porter Jr. and Kevin Porter Jr. In addition to them, PUMA has also signed Kyle Kuzma, Marcus Smart, DeMarcus Cousins and Terry Rozier among others.

Nunn has turned in a stellar rookie campaign with the Heat so far this season. In 51 games, Nunn is averaging 15.3 points, 3.5 assists and 2.7 rebounds per game. He ranks second among all rookies in total scoring, second in field goals made and is tied for first in 3-pointers.

The addition of Nunn further strengthens PUMA’s existence in the basketball marketplace. The company has made a concerted effort recently to add some of the top, young players and the brand has added three intriguing rookies this season.
