Posted Aug 15, 2019
Attorneys representing lawyer Michael Avenatti filed a court motion Wednesday that alleges a Nike employee at least approved under-the-table payments to former Duke star Zion Williamson and ex-Indiana star Romeo Langford when they were in high school in February 2017. The alleged offers were $35,000 or more for Williamson and $20,000 for Langford.
