Jayson Tatum might have had a disappointing Paris Olympics. For the most part, he watched the games and days pass along before being on the podium receiving the gold. Nonetheless, his brand value has been on a staggering rise. Not only did he win his second Olympic gold, but it came attached with the mark of winning an NBA championship. Likewise, big brands want him.

Recently, one of the most reputed fashion brands, Coach, roped him in to become the face of their newest line of men’s fragrances. Exuding self-confidence during the campaign, Tatum put across a strong statement. “You can never dream too big”, the Celtics ace said during the short video.
