Pony International announced today that they have signed an endorsement agreement with Wilson Chandler, the New York Knicks 2007 first-round draft pick, for the re-launch of its performance basketball line for fall 2007.

"Wilson will be an excellent complement to the legacy of athletes that have endorsed Pony over the years," Kevin Wulff, Pony's President and CEO said. "He is an incredible talent with a knack for exciting fans with his dynamic athletic ability."

"Many experts consider Chandler to be the steal of the 2007 draft. An extremely promising hybrid-forward standing at 6'8", he is a powerhouse with rare athleticism," says Colin Brickley, Pony's Public Relations and Sports Marketing Director.

"He plays with a combination of passion, poise, and precision," says Chris Grier Luchey of CGL Sports, Chandler's agent. "He is definitely the perfect caliber of player to create excitement around a legendary brand like Pony."
