Is there any reason for which comic/character assigned to each team?
Or is it just, here's the team uniform and plonk some characters into it?
Wish the 36ers would return to a yellow away jersey!

Better than Looney Tunes I guess - or maybe not...

Not directly a comment about these specific jerseys, but are we getting a little disinterested in all the different jersey variations available or am I just old and boring and missing the whole point of it? I don't know, it seems like our teams are playing in a different looking jersey every few weeks. I know it's a trend and the NBA are big on this. But I feel the novelty is totally lost now because it's so frequently done.
Progression is great, and I get that it's good for selling more jerseys, and gives a reason to mark up some one-off merchandise and all that, but sometimes I miss the familiarity of seeing my team wear just the one jersey throughout the season.

If it leads to teams keeping the same primary jersey design more consistently between seasons, I'm all for it.

There is a image/promotion on Adelaide 36ers Twitter account - Multiverse Round that has a pic of the jersey

So Adelaide is essentially Melbourne's sidekick

I'm shocked that three of the four characters people will actually have heard of ended up in Melbourne and Sydney.
Joker being Tassie is just bizarre. He wears Sydney colors and the Kings have proudly branded themselves as the league's villain; Tassie is the second-favorite team of basically everyone at this point.

These are the worst jerseys i've seen in a long time. Cairns and SEM particularly horrible.

At least when the NRL did Marvel jerseys they made them look like the actual character's suits. These just look cheap. I can see them being in the half price runout bin within a couple of weeks.

Some really poor decisions coming out of the NBL right now.

I'd still prefer to give my 5 year old son the teams primary 'normal' jersey rather than this. Which he already has.
It's unnecessary merchandise that nobody asked for.

These are terrible ... hope they're discounted quick, would be great Xmas stocking stuffers but I wouldn't pay more than $20 for them

These jerseys are horrific garbage. Not sorry.
Licencing partnerships can be cool. Looney Tunes was fine to an extent. But these, ugh.

It's just a straight up cash grab. Generic/templated designs with no real care or reason. Sad to see.

Surely no one is buying these?
