COMPLETE DEAL: Knicks’ Jalen Brunson Sign Two Years Contract with……
Knicks All-Star Game Jalen Brunson didn’t think a social media remark regarding Adidas and Anthony Edwards from Team USA sprinter Noah Lyles was true. As Jalen Brunson is aware, there are regrettably a dozen parodies on the X, formerly known as Twitter, for every authentic sports news account. These parodies share quotes and other forms of bogus information in an effort to boost engagement and gain views.
But when the generally reliable NBA news source NBACentral released this comment from Lyles about Minnesota Timberwolves player Anthony Edwards and his Adidas endorsement, he realized he had been deceived. Lyles says he was insulted when Anthony Edwards’s sneaker release event was invited by Adidas, the sportswear company that supports both athletes, in a recent interview with TIME’s Sean Gregory.
“What do you wish to do? Would you like me to attend [a gathering for] a man who has never attended an NBA Finals? in a sport you have no interest in whatsoever? You’re giving him a shoe, too? With all due respect, the man is a phenomenal athlete. He’s had an incredible year. I think it’s great that they realized he would grow up and decided to give him a shoe. “How could you not see that for me?” is all I’m asking.
