G League Themed Specialty Jersey Bracket

Every jersey has a story, and the NBA G League has always had some of the coolest and most unique basketball jerseys in the world. With opportunities to create a unique themed jersey for every home game during the season, many of our G League teams flex their creative muscles and showcase some incredible designs. Whether in partnership with a local organization, in commemoration of a historic event, or just to celebrate a fun theme night in the arena, these jerseys all have something special to them. And now, we want YOU, the G League fans, to decide which specialty jersey from the 2022-23 season was the very best. Our G League teams submitted their favorite threads from this past season, and we've organized them all into a neat and tidy bracket with 32 entries. 26 different teams submitted jerseys, with the other four (Capital City, College Park, Mexico City, and Oklahoma City, ) not having a themed jersey to submit this season. We have at least one entry from all 26 teams, with our favorite other jerseys rounding out the final six spots as wild cards. The bracket is organized based on Showcase Cup pod groupings - the Central, East, West and South - with seedings based on how the teams finished in their pod last season, and wild card entries taking the No. 7 and 8 seeds in three of those pods.

Each day, tune in to G League social media throughout the day to see the voting matchups of the day, plus more background information on each jersey and some cool glamour shots. Who designed it? What was the cause? Was it auctioned off for charity? Once you've made up your mind, make sure to cast your vote on the G League Twitter poll AND on the G League Instagram Story (@nbagleague). Winners will be tallied up by cumulative total at the end of each day and advanced to the next round so that, come October, we'll go through 31 different matchups and crown a DEFINITIVE G League Fan Vote Jersey of the Year!

Last year, the Long Island Nets and their Spongebob SquarePants-themed jersey took home the crown, holding off the Wisconsin Herd's Fan Art jersey in the bracket finals.
