Sneaker Starbosa

Hot on the “heels” of Shaq’s sneaker deal with Li-ning, Leandro Barbosa has announced that he is shopping for a shoe deal of his own. The Brazilian Blur has already assembled protptypes of the sneaker, which he has dubbed The Starbosa.

We must say, the Starbosa runs circles around Shaq's Li-ning Dunkman sneaker, which is to be sold exclusively in China. We at SunsGossip find the big man’s design to be a little heavy-handed.

Not so for the super-hottie Sun's kicks. Young Leandrinho has already developed a marketing campaign for the sleek Starbosa featuring the Suns dance team (we know Barbosa loves those Suns dancers!). Our favorite Gina holds it down in the first ad.
