Did You Know?
"New Jersey" is a U.S. state, while "jersey" means a sports uniform shirt! Basketball jerseys are typically made from breathable mesh fabric. NBA jersey numbers can be 0-99, though certain numbers are more popular. Michael Jordan's #23 is one of the most iconic jersey numbers in sports history. New Jersey is home to the Brooklyn Nets (who play in nearby Brooklyn, New York). Jersey sales generate millions in revenue for sports leagues. Retired jerseys hung in arenas honor legendary players!
