Looney will appear on billboards through Northern California, and will also be featured in digital advertising and social media campaigns. The brand’s social media platforms will also support regular prize and giveaway programs tied retailers and also offered directly from the brand.

We’re excited to help build one another’s brands.”

Standing six-foot-nine, basketball player Kevon Looney is known for his versatile athleticism, playing both power forward and center for the Warriors. His ability to guard all five positions is reflected in his jersey number “5.” Looney re-signed with the Warriors in July 2019, in a three-year extension. Warriors’ coach Steve Kerr called Looney a “foundational piece” for the team.

“Kevon is a disciplined, dedicated athlete who appreciates the impact of proper nutrition. These are core values for the LIFEAID brand,” says Hinde.
