Kevin Durant Honored To Be In Rare Company With Nike
In a post on Boardroom, the media company Durant co-founded, the 34-year-old expressed gratitude toward Nike.
“When I first signed with Nike, I couldn’t have dreamed of how far we’d go in this partnership,” Durant said. “We’ve done amazing work creatively and philanthropically. We’ve traveled the world together and built a business that will now last forever. I’m excited for the future and honored to be in rare company with this deal.”
Durant first signed with Nike in 2007 as a rookie on the Seattle Supersonics. Since then, the partnership has led to 15 signature shoe deals, with a 16th on the way. Nike has aided the Kevin Durant Charity Foundation throughout their relationship and supports the future Hall of Famer’s philanthropy efforts off the court.
“As one of best basketball players in the world, Kevin Durant has been an important part of the Nike family for the past 16 years,” Nike EVP of Global Sports Marketing John Slusher said. “We look forward to continuing to serve the next generation of athletes together.”
