What's in your cart? Shop Blake Griffin's favorite furniture, shoes and more
Six-time NBA All-Star Blake Griffin just made a slam dunk off the court. Ahead of summer 2025, the basketball legend teamed up with Wayfair for a playful new Chair-ades Challenge that's all about style, comfort and a whole lot of sitting game. The campaign kicked off at Grand Central Terminal's Vanderbilt Hall, where USA TODAY Shopping caught up with Griffin who was fulfilling his cheeky duties as Wayfair's 'Master of Chairemonies." The New York City pop-up invited commuters to strike a pose with a few popular Wayfair chairs for a chance to win a $1,000 Wayfair gift card—and we even got Griffin to participate! "Wayfair has literally everything," Griffin says of his partnership with the retailer. "Things you didn't think you needed, they have." But Griffin isn't just a spokesperson for the retailer—he's a genuine design enthusiast. "Your house is like your sanctuary. It has to feel perfect." He describes his style as a step below minimalist and says that he prefers neutral tones like whites, greens and browns (despite the fact that the basketball star was rocking a purple velvet suit at the Wayfair pop-up). "I've been very anti-clutter the last five or six years. I keep it somewhat simple—not full minimalist, but close. That's what makes my house feel serene," he explains. And yes, being 6'9" does influence his furniture choices: "A big couch is an absolute must for me. It has to be comfortable." Luckily, he can find the best furniture picks for his size and style at Wayfair. Below, Griffin shares some of his current obsessions as part of our latest "What's in your cart?" feature (including his favorite sofa) as well as a sneak peak at the basketball players he's looking forward to watching in the upcoming NBA season. 'I like this sofa because it's big enough to stretch out on and can comfortably seat a few people if needed.' - Blake Griffin 'This nightstand's clean lines and ample storage make it a practical and stylish addition beside my bed.' - Blake Griffin Shop smart: Amazon's Memorial Day sale has more than 50% off summer essentials More: Nike, TOGETHXR to partner on 'Everyone Watches Women's Sports' collection Griffin is also stepping into a new role this fall as an NBA analyst for Amazon Prime Video this fall alongside Dirk Nowitzski. 'I've played basketball my entire life. It's the one thing I know I know about,' he says. 'I'm excited to highlight some of the lesser talked-about stories in the league.' He's especially hyped about the next generation of talent: "Oklahoma City is going to be great for a long time. Cleveland had a great year. Orlando snuck into the playoffs—they're going to be good, too." And of course, he couldn't help but gush about Victor Wembanyama: "He's 7'3", shoots threes, handles the ball—it's crazy what the young guys are doing."

Nike, TOGETHXR to partner on 'Everyone Watches Women's Sports' collection
NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 21: Jessica Robertson, Cofounder, Togethxr speaks at the Fast Company Innovation Festival at Convene on September 21, 2023 in New York City. (Photo byfor Fast Company) Everyone watches women's sports. Including Nike. The sportswear giant and TOGETHXR are partnering on a merchandise collection featuring the now ubiquitous slogan championing women's sports. The collection will include T-shirts, hoodies and baseball hats, and will be available through Nike and TOGETHXR as well as at Dick's Sporting Goods. "TOGETHXR was created to amplify the voices of women athletes and to show the world that women's sports are not just something to be watched, but something to be centered and invested in," Jessica Robertson, TOGETHXR's chief content officer and co-founder, said in a release Friday. Advertisement "This partnership with Nike allows us to take our mission to the next level," Robertson added. "We will not only create access to new and exciting products on a global scale, which we know women's sports fans so greatly seek, but will also build a future where women's sports receive the respect, resources and investment they truly deserve.' Frustrated with the lack of coverage of women's sports they saw throughout their respective careers, Sue Bird, Alex Morgan, Chloe Kim and Simone Manuel created TOGETHXR with Robertson in 2021. A commerce and media company, it was meant to amplify the stories and voices of women athletes, and offer merchandise that was missing in the mainstream market. "Everyone Watches Women's Sports" became TOGETHXR's tagline, a rebuttal to the common refrain by naysayers who tried to dismiss the growing popularity of women's sports. TOGETHXR began producing merchandise with the slogan in 2023, and it took off last year when South Carolina coach Dawn Staley wore one of the shirts during a game. Jason Sudeikis was often seen in "Everyone Watches Women's Sports" gear as he sat courtside during last year's NCAA tournament and WNBA season. Steph Curry, Shaq and actress Aubrey Plaza also were seen in gear with the slogan. "Everyone Watches Women's Sports" merchandise has already generated more than $6 million in revenue, TOGETHXR said, a number sure to grow under the new partnership.
