5’9″ Daily Weekly favorite Nate Robinson has been supersized–to the tune of 80 feet. Nike gave him his own billboard one block from Madison Square Garden at 34th and 7th in Midtown Manhattan. (A clearer pic of the billboard is here.) With the caption “leaps tall centers,” it celebrates his dunk contest victory, in which he cleared 6’11” Orlando Magic center Dwight Howard in his final dunk. Also worth noting, Robinson’s jersey, which was previously among the top ten in sales, has now cracked the top five.
