The Brooklyn Nets have already had a few Marvel-themed bobblehead nights, featuring Spencer Dinwiddie as Iron Man, Julius Erving as Black Panther and a Nets-themed Spider-Man this season — not to mention DeAndre Jordan as a Jedi, paying respect to one of Disney’s other mega properties, Star Wars.
So what’s the next step? (Once the NBA overcomes the novel coronavirus pandemic, of course.)
Marvel-themed uniforms like as good of an idea as any. And the best part, the league won’t have to look far for some design ideas.
Mikey Hamlin, who the NBA has worked with before according to the graphic designer’s Instagram page (srelix), has already put together quite a few superhero-NBA jersey designs — most of which are Marvel driven.
Among the teams Hamlin has done a design for is the Nets, using the popular Spider-Man villain turned anti-hero Venom as inspiration.
