    Won't believe it till I see it. No way Nike goes down without a fight. Lebron gets more than double that from Nike.

    $320 million and equity that will rise in value the moment he signs. Wow.

    I want to know what his equity is with UA, that's the real deal right there if things go as planned. Imagine if you could have a significant Nike chunk for the rest of your life.

    How many years? 10?

    Nice chunk of change there. With some good management he could own a team some day.

    That's how much the Thunder should pay him.

    UA makes amazing clothes, like shirts, shorts, underwear, etc. But their shoes are horrible.

    Uncomfortable and ugly. While getting a big star's endorsement is important, I would rather they spend that money on their shoe technology and design.

    I honestly hate under armour shoes and how they feel on the court. Their other products aren't bad. As a bit of a sneaker head I'm bummed the Nike KD line would end. Oh well. Why not get paid? And hey, he might make the brand into something ala MJ for nike. ALSO maybe this means Harden will hey his own line of kicks :D

    Basically this.

    That's a big bump on his net worth.
