Houston Rockets faithful — usually when a man signs a deal or starts playing for an NBA team, if he’s fortunate enough, more often than not he’ll also sign a shoe contract. As I’m sure many of you already know of this concept in the NBA, I’m going to explain it a little deeper for others like myself who just recently discovered this concept a little over a year ago.
To understand NBA shoe contacts a little better, I think it’s important to understand that a shoe deal in the NBA is not guaranteed as a player.
