?Literal Mickey Mouse Organization?: $190 Billion Worth Disney?s New Deal With NBA Team Leaves Fans in a Tailspin

The NBA made a deal that allowed brand advertising on the jerseys of NBA teams around the league. The deal went down in 2017 and has been a huge success since then. At first, fans were quite skeptical about this move. But it has arguably worked out so far as the brand?s logos do not overshine on jerseys. In fact, they are tucked away in the upper left corner of every team?s jersey.?

Each team has a brand they have signed up with. According to the signed contract, each NBA team is allowed to have 50% of the profits that are created by sponsorships. The rest of the 50% is divided amongst the rest of the 29 teams in the league.?

Disney to stick with the Orlando Magic

The Orlando Magic have had the $190 billion worth company as the sponsor for their jersey since the start. And recently, they have extended their deal with the team for the upcoming future. In fact, Orlando Magic point guard Markelle Fultz did a photoshoot wearing Mickey Mouse ears, white gloves, and yellow shoes.

However, fans could not help but troll the team on its jersey sponsorship extension. A fan tweeted, ?literal mickey mouse organization.?

Here are some of the reactions from NBA Twitter:
