NBA Negotiating with Nike to add proclamations to their gear
HThe days have passed, but the social movement that emerged in the United States due to the death of George Floyd It is still very present in sports. NBA players do not forget the murder and plan to demonstrate with a clear gesture: change the name of their shirts for words that remind them that the fight for social justice is very much alive.
This was revealed by the journalist Shams Charania. And negotiations between the players’ association and Nike, the official brand of NBA jerseys, are underway.
In 2014, the NBA allowed something similar when players were able to play in jerseys that had their nickname instead of the last name. And in recent years, some have used t-shirts in which they could see vindictive slogans such as the sadly famous ‘I Can’t Breathe‘.
