How to Come up with the best Hoops Team Name?

You may consider establishing some naming criteria to zero in on the best choice. For example, examine each option in regards to:

• Does it reflect the makeup of your team?
• Does it sound good?
• Is it easy to remember?
• Is unique?
• Does it look good in writing?
• Does it lend itself well to a logo for your jersey, shirt, or pants?

The best basketball team names can be counted on to check all or most of those boxes. Who gets the final call on the team name? Sometimes the name is decided on by popular vote after some discussion. Sometimes, the coach decides. Other times, a sponsor may have a say. Usually, the better names emerge, and nearly everyone immediately knows they have a winner on their hands.
