Cherry Hill Rookies T-Shirt (Premium Lightweight)

The Cherry Hill Rookies, based in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, played the 1973-74 season in the Eastern Basketball Association, a minor league of the era. They went 5-22, finished fourth in the East Division and missed the playoffs, playing home games at Cherry Hill Arena.

Owner Rich Iannarella, a former pro basketball executive, bought the franchise rights in 1973. Center Luther Rackley made the EBA All-Star team. The team folded after one season, and a club called the Cherry Hill Pros took its place in 1974-75, going 9-17. Iannarella later called the purchase the worst financial mistake of his life.
