Neither company has commented on the reports.

James and Carter raised $100 million for their media company in June 2020, according to Bloomberg. They reportedly described it as a "house of brands" and see it as a Disney-like storytelling company with the "coolness" of Nike and the social impact of Patagonia.

"When we talk about storytelling, we want to be able to hit home, to hit a lot of homes where they feel like they can be a part of that story. And they feel like, Oh, you know what? I can relate to that. It’s very organic to our upbringing," James told the outlet at the time.

Carter added: "When you grow up in a place like where we were, no matter how talented you are, if you don’t even know that other things exist, there’s no way for you to ever feel empowered because you’re like, I’m confined to this small world. That’s our duty. A lot of exposure."

James has grown his portfolio over the last 13 months to include himself on the ownership group with the Boston Red Sox and struck an endorsement deal with PepsiCo.
