JORDAN Clarkson will wear ANTA for the 2023 Fiba World Cup.
The Gilas Pilipinas star formalized an agreement with the brand on Saturday at the Bonifacio Global City.
The contract indicates the Utah Jazz guard will wear the brand's footwear in all the Gilas' games for the duration of the 2023 Fiba World Cup, from August 25 to September 10, 2023.
Signing for ANTA Group Philippines was general manager JP Paglinawan, and ANTA Group Philippines marketing manager Mikko Abello.
While a longer agreement that will potentially cover the upcoming NBA season is currently being discussed by the 2021 NBA Sixth Man of the Year and the brand, the PH arm is glad to have landed this partnership for now.
"The FIBA World Cup is arguably one of the top basketball tournaments in the world. To have one of the top players in the world showcase ANTA at the highest level of competition reinforces our confidence that our brand produces the best basketball product in the market right now," he said.
Abello added: “We are overjoyed to have Jordan choose to wear ANTA in international basketball’s biggest stage especially with the Philippines hosting the quadrennial tournament. It’s an exciting time for the brand this year and having Jordan be a part of it only makes it even more special.”
For the mean time, Clarkson joins a list of players sporting the brand like Klay Thompson and Kyrie Irving.
