Much like Chris Bosh has his tie line, what player would you like to see come out with their own product collection, and what would it be?

Tachauer: The two things that came to mind right away were Kelly Olynyk opening his own sushi restaurant and Hassan Whiteside launching his own line of men’s dress shoes. Both just seem exceptionally fitting, considering their interests and lifestyle choices (at least by way of what they flex online). Truth be told however, I would absolutely buy into whatever Josh Richardson‘s business would be; his entire vibe is so up my alley.

Eyrich: James Johnson easily. Have you seen this man on the sideline, during the beginning of the season? He’s been killing the fashion game and I respect it, especially the Vice Night opener’s outfit. He could dominate his own product collection, no doubt about it.

Nurse: Hassan Whiteside is one of the biggest kids in the NBA, so why not give him his own LEGO line. It would perfect. He could run with his triple-double slogan: “I did it with blocks.”

Leniart: Wade has his own shoe line and has partnered with Stance Socks in the past, so he would be the most likely to launch a new product collection. Outside of Wade though, I think James Johnson has a great sense of fashion. He seems like he would have the taste and vision to create a product collection that would be successful. Perhaps some type of athletic wear maybe? I think you could also create some cool logos with “JJ.”

Campbell: Um, Dion Waiters opening his own chain of cheesesteak restaurants would be ideal. He’s from Philadelphia. He clearly loves to eat. It’s perfect really.
