D'Angelo Russell looked to display Coco5 at presser, but Lakers removed it because the sports drink company isn’t in partnership with them or the NBA.
Arash Markazi, founder and CEO of The Sports Tribune, tweeted the interaction between Russell and Lakers associate director of media relations, Ta’Nisha Cooper, who removed the bottle during Saturday’s postgame press conference following the Lakers’ Game 3 win over the Grizzlies at Crypto.com Arena.Gatorade is the official sports drink of the NBA while BioSteel was named the official sports drink of the Lakers in 2021.
Russell is a partner with the company along with Hall of Famer Charles Barkley, Derrick Rose, Marcus Morris Sr., Markieff Morris, Jahlil Okafor, businessman Eric Holoman and ESPN’s Michael Wilbon.The company website describes Coco5 as follows: “Coco5 is the perfect drink for health and hydration, no matter what your activity level. Our essential mix of electrolytes and minerals will give your body what it needs to rebound from yard work, youth sports, pick-up basketball, intense workouts, and everything in between. And our refreshing all-natural fruit flavors make Coco5 a pleasure to drink every day.”
