Kobe Bryant has had many sponsors throughout his career. A few sponsors he worked with were McDonald's Sprite, Upper Deck and Spalding and Nike.
A sponsors exemption is where the sponsor of the tournament can choose a player (possibly a promising amateur or fan favourite) who would other wise not be exempt to play in that event, and give them a spot in the tournament. The amount of sponsors exemptions is limited per event, and you would only see them in the smaller events, never a major.
It sponsors 80 colleges and Universities.
