Gordon Hayward will be entering sneaker free agency in the upcoming months and, according to a report from ESPN, competing brands such as New Balanceand Anta have their eyes set on the longtime Nike athlete. New Balance, who just partnered with the Boston Celtics on their new training facility, is reportedly expressing strong interest in Hayward as they gear up to relaunch their basketball division.
Per ESPN:
Hayward is entering the second season of his four-year deal with the Celtics. He suffered a major injury to his left leg and foot in the first game of the 2017-18 season. He was playing in the Nike Hyperdunk 2017 Low.
Interesting. New Balance hasn’t been in the market since the 80’s.
With the re-emergence of Puma, establishment of independent shoe lines (Big Baller Brand, Spencer Dinwiddie’s Perception), viability of Chinese sneaker brands like Li-Ning and Anta and New Balance relaunching their basketball program it seem like the basketball sneaker market is about to be more diversified in the 2020’s.
