Meet the NBA’s Newest Dance Team: The Brooklynettes

Well, maybe they are not technically the NEWEST Dance Team (Before the move to Brooklyn, they were the Nets Dancers and back before that the “Jersey Girls”), but they’ve got the newest name, stadium and practice court.

Brooklynettes on the practice court. About 30 minutes before tip off fans on the main concourse can catch a glimpse of the team doing a last minute run through.

The Brooklynettes have also garnered a lot of press for their uniforms and edgy new look.

But are they the NBA’s edgiest?


Not sure if you can tell from this photo, but they have the only uniforms that I’ve ever seen that light up.

And where other squads have poms, the Brooklynettes have nunchucks!

But the edgiest? I leave that for the readers to decide.

Brooklynette of the Game goes to Captain Siobhan

Not only does she have amazing moves….

She may also be the tallest dancer in the NBA
