One week after former LSU star, and presumed #1 overall pick in the NBA Draft, Ben Simmons announced that he was signing with Nike, the Swoosh has reportedly inked another top NBA draft prospect. 

Sporting News is reporting that Oklahoma's sharp shooting guard, Buddy Hield, is the latest addition to the Nike Basketball family. 

Hield will surely be a Top-5 pick in the June 23rd draft, with some mocks having him go as high as #3 to the Boston Celtics.

The 22-year old averaged 25 points and 5.7 rebounds per game in his senior season with the Sooners last year so this looks like another solid get for the boys in Beaverton.
