Would you wear a Sixers mask in public? Maybe an LA Lakers mask, if you’re a poser?

This is your moment, as the NBA is teaming up with Michael Rubin’s Fanatics to sell team masks with 100% of proceeds going to charity.

NBA blurb:

NEW YORK — The National Basketball Association (NBA), Women’s National Basketball Association (WNBA) and Fanatics, which operates e-commerce for both leagues, today announced that all league proceeds from the sales of new cloth face coverings featuring NBA and WNBA team and league logos will benefit Feeding America in the U.S. and Second Harvest in Canada.  The product launch follows the Center for Disease Control’s (CDC) recommendation that cloth face coverings be worn in public settings to help slow the spread of COVID-19.

…

The face coverings, manufactured by FOCO and Industry Rag, will be available on NBAStore.com and WNBAStore.com and feature league logos as well as designs for all 30 NBA and 12 WNBA teams.  Offered in adult and youth sizes, FOCO designs are available in packs of three for $24.99, and Industry Rag’s face coverings are packaged individually for $14.99.  Industry Rag will also donate one face covering for every one purchased to Feeding America and Second Harvest in Canada.  FOCO will make an additional donation to support the two organizations’ efforts.

Select NBA and WNBA teams across the league will also participate, donating 100% of proceeds from team e-commerce sites to Feeding America in the U.S. and Second Harvest in Canada, benefitting (sic) the affiliated food banks in their respective cities.

Good idea.


I’d like to order a custom mask, actually. Mine will feature Donovan McNabb throwing a pass straight into the ground.
