运动鞋巨头花重金与克里夫兰骑士队的前锋勒布朗·詹姆斯签下一份终身合同，

While a spokesperson for the Oregon-based company declined to reveal the dollar value of the deal,

而俄勒冈州的耐克公司发言人并未透露此次签约的具体薪酬，

a source told ESPN that it easily surpasses the 10-year, $300m contract Oklahoma City Thunder forward Kevin Durant signed with Nike last year.

知情人士向ESPN（娱乐与体育节目电视网）透露：这笔数字远高于俄克拉荷马雷霆队的前锋凯文.杜兰特去年与耐克公司签下的10年期3亿美元薪酬的合约。

Maverick¹ Carter, longtime friend and business manger of Jame's commented,

勒布朗的好朋友兼经纪人马弗里克.卡特兴致勃勃地表示：

“For LeBron, he’s thrilled to know he’s a Nike guy for life.”

对勒布朗来说，成为终生的耐克代言人着实有点受宠若惊。
