Athlete-Backed Jewelry Brands

David Yurman Partnered with the NBA to Launch a Men's Jewelry Brand

David Yurman recently threw a party to celebrate its men's jewelry brand's partnership with the National Basketball Association. The high-end jewelry brand introduced its new men's campaign, featuring basketball players like D'Angelo Russell of the L.A. Lakers, Kyle Kuzma of the Washington Wizards, and Jalen Green of the Houston Rockets.

The brand created a compelling three-part interview series featuring in-depth conversations with Russell, Kuzma, and Green, delving into their professional journeys and personal experiences. The engaging video content is currently accessible on DavidYurman.com and the brand's various social media platforms. To celebrate the launch of this series, a special event was held where the film was continually screened alongside the unveiling of the brand's latest men's collections: Curb Chain, Chevron, and Spiritual Beads.
