10. Joe Harris and Justin Hamilton Give Back on Halloween

Here’s a feel-good story to kick off the countdown. Brooklyn Nets reserves, Joe Harris and Justin Hamilton spent time on Halloween this year at the Boys & Girls Club in Flatbush.

Harris and Hamilton dressed up — Harris as a pirate and Hamilton as a viking — and went to the Boys & Girls Club in Flatbush, Brooklyn to celebrate Halloween with the kids.

The two Nets teamed up with Party City to provide the kids with Halloween costumes, and brought plenty of candy for everyone.

“We were able to see the kids, give them some Halloween costumes courtesy of Party City, help them Trick-Or-Treat a little bit, and it was a lot of fun,” Hamilton said.

Harris and Hamilton were both signed in the 2016 offseason, and it’s clear that both have embraced being a member of the Nets, and being a part of Brooklyn. It’s always nice to see professional athletes give back, and it’s safe to say that both Hamilton and Harris made Halloween a very special occasion for the kids in Flatbush.

On the court, Harris has emerged as a key reserve for the Nets, while Hamilton has shown flashes of unique offensive ability, thanks to his height and ability to occasionally shoot three’s.
