First, most of the cheerleaders in NBA are part-time.
In the United States, the full-time working hours are not long, maybe less than 40 hours a week, so there is a lot of spare time to do part-time work, and most NBA games are in the evening (American time), and there are only 50 or 60 games a year (preseason+regular season+playoff home), so the part-time time time is not very long. In fact, there are rules in the NBA that people who don't have a proper career or a stable job can't become cheerleaders. Therefore, the performance time of cheerleading actually only accounts for a short period of time for the players. They all have other incomes, most of which are part-time jobs just to earn some pocket money or hobbies.
Second: get a chance to show yourself.
Cheerleading performed in front of 1 10,000 or 20,000 live audiences and millions of televisions, which was a great stage. They can show their talents to the maximum extent and get the greatest satisfaction from their hearts, especially some players who naturally love dancing. They are eager for such attention.
Third: development opportunities
There are many fans in the NBA, including many elites from all walks of life. For example, the Lakers' home court is often visited by big-name stars. If they behave well, they may be discovered by some talent scouts and then cultivated into elites.
Fourth: a more advanced social circle
The NBA's ability to absorb gold is not far off. Most players are multimillionaires. Although the NBA clearly stipulates that players are not allowed to fall in love with cheerleaders, there are many people engaged in higher occupations besides players, such as trainers, team doctors, equipment managers, scouts, journalists and so on. These are actually high-paying occupations, so it is also very beneficial to the player's own development.
Therefore, even if the salary of cheerleaders is not high, there are still many beautiful women who are eager for this salary because it is really possible to change their lives.
