The Sixers start the second half of the NBA season Tuesday night. The team is playing great lately but the chatter among fans seems to be about Melanie Fitzpatrick's sexy appearance in the SI Swimsuit edition.
Last week we interviewed the 24-year-old dancing queen. She told us about her background in dancing, how she became a member of the Sixers Dance Team and how this whole swimsuit modeling gig came along.
There is a great video that should definitely get 76ers-faithful ready for the playoff push.
Watch Fitzpatrick as she shakes her pom-poms during her Sports Illustrated swimsuit shoot. And for more about Fitzpatrick's shoot click here.
