No, hes not

He has not proven anything in the NBA yet. Dont you think he needs to prove it before hes considered a superstar?

Stardom is about popularity, not basketball talent or accomplishment. Zion's a star. He's why scalpers were selling summer league game tickets for ridiculous prices.

Sometimes it feels like Nike pays guys more so to keep them away from other companies. I never fully understood the Jordan Brand/Nike relationship though. I understand they're a subsidiary but how independent is Jordan Brand?

I don't get why people sign shoe deals if they don't get a signature shoe in the deal. AD never had a real signature shoe. Not some special edition shite, like a legit one. That's wild to me when Lillard gets one over him.

Zion was quite possibly the most famous college basketball player of all time.

The definition of a superstar.

So almost $11 million per year just from his shoe deal. I don't know what he's making now with all that Ruffle's money, but AD before Rich Paul was making $9 million per year in endorsements.

Zion will make more endorsement money than AD this year. Zion is Mr. Personality, AD is kind of akward. Klutch can't blame New Orleans for AD's lack of appeal. Some are speculating that Zion will end up being a billionaire.
Zion billionaire?

Is it? Lillard is really marketable, he's also exposed more to public as well as in Portland where all the shoes are based no? Adidas and Nike being the primary 2

But you cant make money off endorsements playing in a small market.
