Fortnite has had a good history of collaborating with NBA stars and has previously collaborated with Lakers star LeBron James as well.

The NBA star was featured after his role in the movie Space Jam: A New Legacy and its bundle included a handful of outfits based on his career in basketball and his role in the movie. Alongside the two skins, the bundle also contained associated accessories such as the Nike LeBron 19 shoes. An optional outfit amongst the bundle paid homage to LeBron’s classic game day look from 2018.

Besides this, Fortnite also had a crossover called Fortnite x NBA which featured a brand new mode called the Court Crashers mode. In this mode, Fortnite players could score points through slam dunks by launching themselves through high leaps. During this crossover, players could also visit a brand new NBA Welcome Hub that gave this Epic Battle Royale an interesting new look.
