Kobe Bryant mentioned: ” I’m extremely excited to work with FUN88 because I immediately connected to their brand message of ‘how to live your dream.’ Part of the Mamba Mentality is to have the confidence and bravery to live your dream every single day. While it’s important to have a dream, it’s more important to commit to making that dream a reality.”

It is also the jersey sponsor of Premier League club Newcastle United. The brand currently works with two athlete ambassadors: Robbie Fowler, the English football legend, and basketball legend Steve Nash, two-time NBA regular season MVP winner.
