Nike Rayguns ad with Bootsy Collins

During the 2002 NBA playoffs, Nike debuted a TV commercial campaign that sent Vince Carter AKA Dr. Funk, Jermaine O Neal, Paul Pierce, Baron Davis and Jerry Stackhouse back in time to play for a fictional ABA team called the Roswell Rayguns. The commercials featured a funky appearance from legendary Parliament musician and 70s funk icon Bootsy Collins. It s 1975 and we re just keeping the funk alive Bootsy Collins sang as the Rayguns took on the NBA teams of yesteryear.
