With Kanye West leaving Nike to join adidas. The swoosh had a roster spot available for a musician (or at least that’s how I pictured it), and last night during a concert in Portland, Oregon. Rapper / Raptors ambassador Drake announced his partnership with Jordan Brand. He then posted a few of his custom AIr Jordan 10’s and OVO Stingray 12’s on Instagram to make haters extra hater-y. Not sure what this means for the Raptors but when he sits courtside at the Air Canada Center, he’s probably be wearing an ill pair of J’s. So there’s that.
“Today also happens to be one of the best days of my life. Growing up, I’m sure we all idolized this guy, he goes by the name of Michael Jordan. So today, I came to Portland and officially became inducted into the Team Jordan family.”
He’s home. Welcome the newest member of #TeamJordan: @Drake
