From NESN:
Raise your hand if you recognize the man in the photo above. It’s OK, we didn’t either.
That’s Suns point guard Goran Dragic, who appears on a recently released series of personalized debit cards along with Grizzlies counterpart Mike Conley. Athletes endorsing seemingly random products is certainly nothing new, but it appears that the card manufacturer, Card.com, does not have rights to use NBA team colors or logos.
So, the final result is a series of prepaid debit cards featuring two players in street clothes that very few fans outside of the respective cities would be able to pick out of a crowd.
The website also features cards bearing the likenesses of such retired athletes as Brett Favre, Richard Petty and Clyde Drexler — with all team logos removed — but Dragic and Conley are by far the most obscure selections. Check out some more options starring the young ballers in the photos below.
