There has also been a recalibration of the market in recent years, as brands have come to the realization that it is nearly impossible to generate a positive ROI on massive endorsement deals. For perspective, Powell said there is not a single active NBA player whose merchandise sales “come anywhere close to offsetting the cost of their contract.” Of course, one could argue there is a marketing and credibility component that needs to be considered when evaluating those deals.
The most interesting bit from that article and it makes total sense. It also would explain why Nike didn't want to do a lifetime deal with Vanessa Bryant as the only current and former basketball player that's selling like that is Jordan

It's true. The issue is on both sides.
Nike's last overall good year for signature shoes was like 2013. Other than that they have good designs every now and then, like for Kyrie, but even his shoes has had down years.

It’s because the shoes are ass and Nike isn’t as cool as what they used to be .
Most of their hot shyt Nike put out are collabs with other creators like Off-White and Ambush .
nikkas out here not really trying to wear hooping shoes like that unless they are some undeniable fire ..Nike needs to figure they shyt out .The game changed and they still operating like it’s 2003

ESPN and ABC has separate crews for their broadcast
at the ESPN crew. Kendrick Perkins, Nichols AND Richard Jefferson?
I’m watching the Athletic on YouTube ..not dealing with ESPN
ESPN and ABC has separate crews for their broadcast
That's actually the same crew as last years draft except with Perk and RJ added to the mix.
The ABC crew is worse IMO

ABC is doing the human interest stuff.
There's so many other draft shows I hear that are good online that it's pointless to watch ESPN be late on everything.
A$AP Shams last year had his info early.
Thanks for the heads up, I'll probably try it out
I like JT Thor & Joe Wieskamp for the Bulls at #38, what you think @tremonthustler1
