Wilson Sporting Goods (Chicago) opens their third New York City location, according to Retail Dive. This will be the company’s third New York City location, and fourth U.S. location overall.

The space in New York’s Columbus Circle consists of two stories featuring sports equipment, and the retailer’s own apparel sportswear line.

Hosted in partnership with Slam Magazine, the new store was celebrated through an NBA Draft Week event. NBA draftees visited the store to talk about the draft and the upcoming season, like Jaden Ivey, Keegan Murray and Jabari Smith.

Wilson disclosed plans to continue opening pop-ups in “key locations” throughout the summer, which includes its U.S. Open store. In recent weeks, the brand opened a store in New York’s Upper East Side. Last year, the retailer opened its first store in Chicago.
