A month ago, I posted an And1 Ph article about Markieff Morris’ participation in the NBA All Star Weekend 2012 (Rookie-Sophomore BBVA Rising Stars Game) while representing AND1.  Rocking custom-made Empire Mids in Phoenix Suns colorway, he made sure the brand got a lot of attention with his game-long brilliance and versatility, and his PEs definitely made heads turn.  Click HERE for the said blog article.

This time, I bring to you a behind-the-scenes look of the NBA 2012 All Star Weekend, AND1-style!  With images courtesy of And1 President Rob Purvy and Skaeryd (via Shutterfly), we show you how it went down in Orlando, Florida.


Before Markieff played in the BBVA Rising Stars Game, he and twin brother Marcus were officially welcomed by AND1 management at The Palm Restaurant along with their family members.  Check out the menu, the featured drink actually says “Morris Martini”.  I guess it’s shaken’ (bakin’) not stirred, pardon the Bond pun.

And1 head honcho Rob Purvy shows off the custom-made Empire Mids, plus a still shot of the shoe.

Right before dinner, Markieff receives his player exclusive footwear.  Rod Keller (Brand Marketing Director), Rob, and Marcus Morris (twin brother playing for the Houston Rockets) pose for posterity.


Here’s an aerial shot of the AMWAY Center basketball court, plus a glimpse of Markieff as projected in the arena’s overhead display.
