When thinking of athletes with big endorsements, Gordon Hayward of the Utah Jazz is not likely one of the first to come to mind. I mean, yeah he does those Bailey’s Moving & Storage commercials, but we aren’t exactly talking big time there.
Nevertheless, last month Hayward made a breakthrough by becoming the first NBA player to sign an eSports endorsement deal with HyperX (eSports means electronic sports or video gaming, for those who didn’t know).
While HyperX is known for several gamer accessories such as memory modules, solid-state drives and USB flash drives, Hayward will mostly be representing their headsets which are tailored to provide the best possible video game experience.
