Shane Christensen [2](born November 16, 1978) nicknamed Scooter is an American exhibition basketball player There’s family, and then there’s family away from your family. That’s how Scooter Christensen describes his Globetrotter teammates. “I consider the guys on the team my brothers,” he says. Of course, like brothers, the players fun-lovingly bust on each other a lot. “My first year, we had a player that looked like Squidward Tentacles from SpongeBob SquarePants. The guys put a picture of Squidward right on his seat on the bus. We were trying not to laugh, but as soon as he got on the bus, it was over.”
