Minnesota Timberwolves’ Anthony Tolliver has started a Christian sporting apparel line. He’s partnered up with D-League player Lanny Smith to create “IJNIP” In Jesus name I play. The goal of the company mirrors a statement that newly minted Jets player Tim Tebow has made about using football as a platform. Using athletics to spread the word of God.
Toliver has already recruited several athletes to invest in the company and even more are representing the brand on court.
Donte Green of the Sacramento Kings, Quentin Richardson of the Orlando Magic, Deandre Jordan of the Clippers and Derrick Williams of the Minnesota Timberwolves to name a few.
