The Sacramento Kings are the second NBA team to officially land a uniform sponsorship deal for the 2017-18 season.

The Kings announced Monday that it will use an ad for Sacramento-based Blue Diamond Growers, which manufactures Blue Diamond Almonds.

Darren Rovell reports that Blue Diamond is set to pay $5 million per year for the ad placement.

Blue Diamond is a local company which makes the partnership between the two easier to do business beyond just the uniform.

The team released this statement about further endeavors:

“Beginning with the 2016-17 season, the Blue Diamond Almond Breeze logo will appear on the court apron below the visitor and Kings benches. Fans will find select menu items that feature high-quality Blue Diamond almonds, as well as Blue Diamond Almond Breeze beverages at arena kiosks.”
