It appears that Kevin Durant will accept NIKE’s offer of $280 million. Durant’s original $60 million deal with the brand is soon to expire, and Under Armour was making a bold attempt to get Durant to leave NIKE by offering $250 million to the NBA superstar.
It was a good try, but Durant loves the NIKE brand, and since they’re offering more than Under Armour, it’s a no-brainer. Durant had originally turned down more money from Adidas coming out of college to go with the NIKE brand.
