Nigerian-Jamaican NBA Star, Deandre Ayton Gets New Puma Deal As No.1 Draft Pick

19-Year old, Deandre Ayton, a Nigerian, has completed his journey from the Bahamas to the NBA. Ayton, who the Phoenix Suns selected as the No. 1 overall pick of the 2018 NBA Draft last week, will now embark on an NBA career that will pay him millions.

On Monday, sportswear company Puma announced it had signed a four-year, multi-million dollar endorsement contract with Ayton that reportedly could pay him more than $1 million a year to endorse the brand's shoes and clothing.
Meanwhile, Ayton's selection as the first pick of the NBA Draft almost ensures that he will sign a contract with the Suns that will pay him an estimated $6.8 million in his first year as a professional player, and he could get paid as much as $8 million.
Several years before his skills on the basketball court tho, he was a kid trying to decide whether to work a summer job with his dad or practice his favorite new sport.

All these paths of success of pretty simple people, especially young ones, are so motivational, don't you think? Just imagine a 19-year-old has already reached the top and gets around 6 million $ for his play and his work. It's just awesome, it makes you hope and work hard for your future and your success, nothing just comes to your knees spontaneously. I'm keen on inspiring stories and biographies as you could've noticed. I found a special source giving brief insight on different star's lives with all their stories of success.
