Mist N’ Sip Insulated Water Squeeze Bottle
This squeeze bottle not only dispenses water but also sprays a fine mist. In other words, it releases a refreshing cloud of aerosolized H2O with a soft press of its trigger. Therefore, the bottle’s two-in-one function moderates body temperature inside and out. It’s the best water bottle for basketball, cycling, running, and other sports or fitness activities.
Made from lightweight and flexible BPA-free plastic, the 20-ounce bottle permits one-handed squeezing when drinking water. Its dual-walled insulation system stops condensation to keep beverages cold up to 50% longer. In addition, the trigger is lockable to avoid unintentional spraying.

Basketball Books
From the motivational and instructive to memoirs and biographies, and everything else in between — basketball book choices are endless. Many have been written and more will certainly follow owing to the sport’s ever-growing popularity worldwide. Consequently, you can fill a section of a city library with books about basketball.
We personally recommend David Halberstam’s “The Breaks of the Game,” Kobe Bryant’s “The Mamba Mentality: How I Play” and Dave Zarum’s “NBA 75: The Definitive History,” among others.
