Markelle Fultz, the Washington Huskies standout guard projected to be the first-overall selection of the 2017 NBA Draft, signed a multi-year endorsement contract with Nike. This announcement comes not long after Fultz visited the Nike World Headquarters in Beaverton, OR, according to inside sources. While terms of the deal have not been disclosed, it is likely that the Maryland product got a deal close to what Lonzo Ball rejected – five years at $3 million per. A signature shoe for Fultz is likely not on the horizon anytime soon.
Blessed and thankful to become a part of the @nikebasketball family!!! #F2G
