Did Michael Jordan inspire the campaign? How did the team behind the campaign pull this off? What’s next for the Anthony Edwards 2 campaign? Anthony Edwards, Onda, the director, Cam Mason, the Head of Sports Marketing at Adidas Basketball, Miles Jackson-Cartwright, Manager of Global Brand Marketing at Adidas Basketball, will explore these questions, and many more, on Please Explain.
