內文

Duke star Zion Williamson is suing to enforce his termination of an agreement
he signed with a Florida marketing company, maintaining their deal was
unlawful under North Carolina law, his attorneys told ESPN.

杜克大學的明星球員 Zion Williamson 已經聘請律師提告一家佛羅里達的行銷公司,

因其公司所提供的合約並不符合北卡當地的法規

Williamson is set to become the No. 1 overall pick to the New Orleans
Pelicans in next week's NBA draft.

Zion Williamson 應該會在下周的19年選秀大會上, 成為鵜鶘的狀元新秀

According to the suit filed in federal court in North Carolina on Thursday,
Williamson signed a marketing deal with Gina Ford and Prime Sports on April
20, five days after he had declared his intention to enter the NBA draft.

依照Zion律師在北卡聯邦法庭的提告內容, Zion在宣布其將投入19選秀後的五天

與Gina Ford 和 Prime Sports 簽下了行銷合約(2019/04/20)

That agreement included a clause that it could not be terminated for five
years. Williamson's family told Ford and Prime Sports on May 31 that it was
ending the agreement. The agency responded by saying that if Williamson
terminated the deal, they would sue for damages in excess of $100 million.

在合約中, 明確記載了在未來的五年內不得終止合約

但在2019/05/31, Williamson的家人告知 Gina Ford 與Prime Sports要終止合約

這家行銷公司便告知, 如果提前終止合約, 將會提告Zion賠償至少 1 億美金

Williamson has since signed with CAA Sports for his contractual and marketing
representation.

Zion 後來跟CAA sports簽訂經紀約, 代理負責其球員合約與行銷合約

According to the suit, the agreement was unlawful under North Carolina's
Uniform Athlete Agents Act because Prime Sports is not certified by the
National Basketball Players Association or a registered athlete agent in
North Carolina or Florida. Additionally, the agreement failed to contain, as
required under the UAAA, a conspicuous notice in boldface type in capital
letters informing the athlete that by signing the agreement he was losing his
eligibility to compete as a student-athlete.

根據北卡的學生運動員經紀法案(Uniform Athlete Agents Act, UAAA)

Prime Sports 並不是NBA所核可的行銷公司, 也不是在北卡或佛羅里達註冊的經紀公司

導致其簽署的合約並不合法

而且根據UAAA, 在合約上必須清楚記載, 告知當運動員簽下合約時

代表其無法回歸為學生運動員, 但是Prime Sports所提供的合約並沒有註明

(應該就是當時水鳥抽到簽時, 有人說如果Zion不想去, 只要還沒簽經紀約
就可以回去Duke打球)

Jeffrey S. Klein, an attorney for Williamson, told ESPN in a statement:
"Prime Sports Marketing's actions towards Mr. Williamson blatantly violated
the North Carolina statute specifically designed to protect student athletes.
Mr. Williamson properly exercised his rights under the law to void his
business dealings with Prime Sports Marketing. Prime Sports Marketing's
continued threats against Mr. Williamson made necessary the filing of this
lawsuit."

Zion的律師告訴ESPN, 這份合約違反了北卡當地保護學生運動員的法規

Zion訴諸法律是為了保護自己的權利才提告


The suit asks the court to declare the agreement void and bar Prime Sports
from acting on Williamson's behalf.

只能說簽下去就認命一點

又不是像TD那種被掏空財產
