Evolution Management + Marketing Signs Enes Kanter

Last week, I highlighted a new relationship between two-time Super Bowl MVP Terry Bradshaw and Evolution Management + Marketing.  The two signed an agreement that made Evolution the exclusive marketing agency for Bradshaw.  Evolution has not stopped signing up new, talented clients.  The company also just signed future 2011 NBA Draft pick Enes Kanter to an exclusive marketing arrangement.

Evolution will collaborate with Kanter’s contract agent Max Ergul to strengthen Kanter’s off-court brand.  Specifically, Evolution will focus on beverage, personal care, and electronics categories with respect to Kanter’s marketing endeavors.  Taking the lead for Evolution with regards to Kanter’s representation are Brian Samuels, Joshua Schwartz, and Tom Yaps.

DraftExpress.com current has Enes Kanter as the #6 overall pick, going to the Washington Wizards.  NBADraft.net predicts that the Cleveland Cavaliers will select Kanter with the #4 overall pick.

One reply on “Evolution Management + Marketing Signs Enes Kanter”

Evolution is the premier sports marketing agency in the U.S. – makes a lot of sense for Kanter.
