Announced on December 21, 2025, this expanded role builds on his previous position as Creative Director of Innovation, where he contributed to merchandise design, in-game experiences, co-branded Don Life practice jerseys, the 2022-23 St. C’s Nike City Edition uniforms, and events like Big Sean Night at Little Caesars Arena.Now overseeing global creative direction, community engagement, international fan outreach, and cultural storytelling blending music, fashion, art, and basketball, Big Sean aims to export Detroit's identity worldwide. Key highlight: the launch of Creatives Across Continents on World Basketball Day, inviting global designers and artists to create works inspired by Detroit Basketball, with selected pieces—prompted directly by Big Sean—forming a collaborative retail collection in 2026.Pistons EVP Alicia Jeffreys praised his authenticity and reach, while Big Sean emphasized uplifting Detroit creatives on a larger scale. Upcoming 2026 activations include NBA All-Star Weekend, 313 Day, and international partnerships. This aligns with Detroit's trend of leveraging hip-hop icons, like Eminem's Lions deal, for authentic global branding.
