How does working with Yao Ming help your personal brand? Maddy: 50 times better, for sure

Live Bar January 19, 2019 Today, NBA star Maddy participated in the draymond Green podcast show.

Dream Chaser: When it comes to business, do you think your personal brand growth has benefited from playing with Yao (because of his influence in China)?

Maddy: Yeah, I should say enhanced. When I was at Magic, my jersey sales were the number one in China, before I worked with Yao. My first visit to China was in 1999, and I've been going every year since. But after being a teammate with Yao, we also played the first NBA China game, which should be a 50-fold improvement to my brand, for sure.

Dream Chasing: It's really interesting, a lot of people don't know about China's influence on the NBA, whether it's for personal brands or the entire NBA.

Maddy: Yeah, you can see how much money just streaming NBA games can bring, and we've had a lot of relationships over the years, and they know exactly what's going on in the U.S., so you have to recognize that some of your remarks can hurt our brand, everybody's brand.
