New Zealand Performs Haka Dance Gets In Bogut And Dellavedova S Face

With the Aussies standing at midcourt, New Zealand got all up in their personal space. The dance involves a lot of yelling and aggressive movements, but NBA players Andrew Bogut and Matthew Dellavedova looked unperturbed by the close proximity of their opponents.

Unfortunately, the dance didn’t pay off. Australia downed the Kiwis, 71-59.

You’ll remember New Zealand did the same dance before taking on Team USA at the FIBA World Cup last year. They weren’t as in each other’s faces then, but James Harden’s blank stare pretty much sums up the team’s reaction.
