361 Degree Basketball Cube

Chinese sports brand 361 goes one degree beyond the competition with Cube, a television commercial featuring a 3D solo basketball performance. A basketball player bounces off the floor, the walls and the ceiling of a rotating cubed basketball court, using his 361 shoes to propel himself through his extreme moves.
