LaMelo Ball Officially Joins PUMA Hoops

LaMelo Ball is definitely not about the Big Baller Brand. At just 19 years old, Ball is redefining the next generation of basketball through his electrifying playing style and his personal style. LaMelo will serve as a brand ambassador for PUMA both on and off the court, including signature products.

As part of the partnership, PUMA will collaborate with Ball to create products that incorporate PUMA’s culture first approach, blurring the lines between sports, culture, music and fashion.

LaMelo on signing with PUMA:
“I personally chose a different path to achieve my success because that defines who I am. I know some people think I am mysterious or ‘not from here,’ and I might have to agree. I am someone who likes to be different & consider myself to be 1 of 1.” pic.twitter.com/CSEBcdmSWg

The first collab will be a PUMA x LaMelo Ball T-shirt and hoodie set to release November 18th in correlation with the 2020 NBA Draft (further details forthcoming). PUMA and LaMelo’s approach to their partnership will fall under the “Not from Here” creative concept, which LaMelo came up with himself to represent his “one of one” attitude.

We’ll see who ends up landing the Puma man come draft night.
