Reebok hasn’t really made a splash in a long time regarding NBA players and sneakers. Sixers rookie Nerlens Noel hopes he can help change that. Reports say he had agreed to an endorsement deal with the company. Allen Iverson was the last player to really make Reebok hot. Hit the jump for more.

Noel was quoted as saying:
“I don’t think I’m just a prototypical big man. I think I’ll be able to sell shoes. Growing up, I liked a lot of old school shows like Fresh Prince and Martin,” Noel said. ”And what Reebok really wants to do is bring it back to retro—like, I have a flat top. So going retro, with not only the shoe but even off-court style.”
Good Luck Nerlens. It will take quite a bit to make Reebok relevant in the NBA world again.
