Seattle Ballers Represent!

Over at Ballhype, Jason created a Google Maps mashup that shows the birthplace of every NBA player. Is Seattle represented? Yes, oh yes.

Seven players are born in Seattle.

That, ladies and gentleman, is more than any single city north of Los Angeles (14) or west of Dallas (9).

San Francisco proper has as many NBAers (1--Jason Kidd) as Edmonds (Martell Webster). Ha! Eat our dust, Golden Gaters!

Overall, 10 NBAers were born in Washington state.
