The Replay with El and Al: NBA brand pairings


So we all know that NBA stars have big shoe contracts, partnerships with Foot Locker, and ads for sports drinks. However, these basketball related deals aren’t the only way they bring in the endorsement dollars. After a recent run-in with a twenty foot poster of Jimmy Butler in the uber trendy 5th Avenue Bonobos flagship store, El and Al started to reflect on their favorite quirky NBA star/ brand pairings.
In this episode of The Replay, they discuss some of their favorite endorsements including Jimmy and Bonobos, KD and Sprint, and Charles Barkley and Weight Watchers. They also ask the tough question- which of the State Farm Hoopers is the creepiest?
Lastly, they play a quiz game to test their knowledge of popular brand slogans. Spoiler alert: Al is TERRIBLE at this game.
As always, if you enjoyed the pod, and I am sure you did, be sure to download and rate it five stars!
