In another milestone in the construction of the HSS Training Center in Brooklyn's Industry City, the six baskets that will be used for Nets practices have been installed. The baskets, wrapped in protective blue plastic material, were hung from the now-completed ceiling over the last few days.
The $45 million, 70,000 square foot facility is expected to be done mid-season -- probably around the All-Star Break and the Nets "circus road trip," when Barclays Center goes from the NBA and NHL to Ringling Brothers. The training center will replace the Nets longtime training facility in East Rutherford, NJ.
