Denver Nuggets superstar Nikola Jokic has officially signed a multi-year shoe contract with 361 Degrees, a Chinese sporting goods brand. This strategic partnership will see Jokic becoming a leading global ambassador for the brand.
It marks a significant shift for Jokic, who spent his first eight seasons in the NBA wearing Nike sneakers, as per Clutchpoints.
Jokic as Global Face of 361 Degrees
Complex reported that as Jokic stepped onto the court without Nike for the first time during a game against the Toronto Raptors, he debuted a high-top variation of the 361° Big3 Future CQT. This exclusive shoe, unavailable in stateside stores, showcases 361's dedication to innovative design and cutting-edge technology. Crafted with a synthetic and mesh build, it features Carbon Critical and SOARSYSTEM technology for unparalleled performance and comfort.
Jokic's unmatched skill and consistent MVP-caliber performance make him an invaluable asset for any shoe brand. No matter the company he aligns with, Jokic's success is certain to follow as he continues to elevate his game and leave a lasting impact on the sport.
Jokic's partnership with 361 Degrees extends beyond his on-court performance. As he joins Nuggets teammate Aaron Gordon as a brand member, their collective impact will resonate globally. This collaboration showcases Jokic's growing influence and sets the stage for future endeavors off the court.
Jokic's decision to sign with 361 Degrees aligns with a growing trend among NBA players who embrace nonconventional shoe brands over traditionally popular ones like Nike. Other notable examples include Philadelphia 76ers' Joel Embiid partnering with Skechers and Charlotte Hornets' LaMelo Ball choosing Puma. Jokic's move to 361 signifies his confidence in the brand's ability to deliver exceptional results.
Jokic's Unstoppable Performance
Being a perennial MVP candidate, Jokic continues to dominate on the court, averaging an impressive 26.3 points, 12.3 rebounds, and 9.4 assists per game this season. Shooting an incredible 53.8% from the field, he showcases his versatility and impact on the Nuggets' success. With his exceptional play, Jokic has propelled Denver to a top record in the highly competitive Western Conference.
Fresh off a 113-104 victory against the Toronto Raptors, Jokic played a pivotal role, leading the Nuggets with 31 points and 15 rebounds. This win adds to their momentum as they strive to maintain their position as a top contender. However, formidable opponents continue to challenge the Nuggets, creating intense competition in the league.
