The NBA superstars are being sued because they are "paid celebrity endorsers" of the Power Balance bracelet which purport to improve "strength, balance and flexibility."
But according to lead plaintiff Brian Casserly, the $79.95 bracelet is "nothing short of snake oil". He is seeking statutory and punitive damages for consumer fraud, false advertising, unfair competition and unjust enrichment.
"Despite defendants' representations that the hologram with enhance consumers' 'strength, balance and flexibility,' it is biologically incapable of doing so," the lawsuit states.
