Jeremy Lin, now with the Toronto Raptors, signed with Adidas in 2014 after parting ways with Linsanity-era Nike. China-based Li-Ning also made a strong play for Lin’s endorsement rights, but adidas’ financial terms ($3M per year for 5 years) and creative platform ultimately won him over.

Lin’s player editions with adidas have showcased his family roots and thoughtful personal style. He now rotates between Crazy Explosives and Pro Bounce Lows.
