After a whirlwind offseason, free agency in the NBA finally seems to have slowed to a crawl, but Jordan Brand made a splashy acqusition of their own by inking the top unsigned athlete on the market: Zion Williamson.

Though the news was only announced today, it didn’t take long for Jordan to throw up billboards featuring Zion in various markets. The usual candidates β€” Los Angeles and New York β€” received billboards, as did New Orleans.

We see the Lakers and the Knicks have started their recruiting efforts early! We joke, but no doubt, that will be a concern for some fans. It’s entirely too premature to be seriously concerned about any of that, though β€” those billboards in Los Angeles and New York are just regular old advertising practices at work, nothing more.

One thing is for sure, though: There might not be anyone else better to become the new face of the Jumpman than Zion. How about the hype on this guy?
