Nike | LA Don’t Play

The Program:

Nike’s LA Don’t Play is a summer-long, three-phase initiative built to connect with LA’s top high school hoopers on and off the court.

Phase one kicked off with a Draft Day-themed welcome dinner, where 14 elite athletes were introduced to the Nike family in a way that felt earned, elevated, and unforgettable. I developed the brand identity, designed the logo and print collateral for The Welcome Dinner.

Phase two Free Game Weekend invited all 14 elite athletes to a two-day immersive training and leadership camp. Day one focused on high-intensity performance and mindset training under the lights. Day two captured each athlete in a professional photoshoot, positioning them as leaders ready to inspire and leave their mark on LA hoops.

Phase three: coming soon
