Despite Almost Suffering from a “Hummer Scandal” in 2003, LeBron James is Now Selling New Ones With Crabs

LeBron James is one of the most marketable athletes on the face of the planet right now. And so, as you might expect, just about every brand on planet Earth wants a piece of the King. Of course, out of the all brand deals he has under his belt, Nike is the most popular. But, perhaps his favorite one is his deal with Hummer.

The King has long had an intense love for the luxury car brand, ‘Hummer’. And now, of course, he has a brand deal with them too. And that, in turn, has, in turn, caused quite an interesting advertisement, to say the absolute least.
