Sportswear giant adidas has signed a multi-year agreement with up-coming basketball star Josh Smith.

The college star is heading towards the NBA and picked up a string of awards last season.
Said Erich Stamminger, president and CEO of adidas America: "With the recent addition of Sebastian Telfair and now Josh Smith to an already outstanding group of NBA partners, we feel that adidas is well positioned to play a large role in defining the future of the league.”
