Charlotte Bobcats hope to cash in on picks

Posted Jun 29, 2005

In a draft short of marketable stars, the biggest business story that developed Tuesday night was the Charlotte Bobcats selecting Sean May and Raymond Felton, two of college basketball's most recognizable prospects who played their ball only 170 miles away. According to the team, the two will be featured in ads together starting Thursday. The Bobcats have been using the tagline "get closer" and the copy with the Felton and May ads will say "Get closer to the national champs." (ESPN.com)
