The pinstripes are cool, and I can get with the gold lettering, but it’s just boring. Walker (6): I’ve seen this before - you see how Portland celebrated its airport? I need a lot more than just the CLT initials. The Hornets have too cool of colors to come up with this. Maybe they’ll look better on the court, but right now they’d look better in the trash. ![]() I don’t particularly like gold on jerseys, either. Considering the Hornets had the coolest jerseys in the 1990s, I expected better.Įdwards (10): The lettering is too in your face. Jones (10): Shoutout to the airport on this one. (Mint, gold and granite coupled with the support of Charlotte’s airport abbreviation.) Name one well-done gray jersey … I’ll wait. But this ain’t it, chief.Įdwards (3): Gray uniforms never work. Walker (4): Oh, a gray uniform? I have to imagine - and I know there are - a million better ways to celebrate the anniversary of deciding not to relocate a team. Jones (7): Why are the Kings in gray? Want to celebrate the Kings staying in Sacramento? How about black and purple? Maybe something paying tribute to the old Arco Arena? I’d even be good with the light blue deals, which are my favorite. I would’ve preferred either a throwback of the title-contending Kings or a powder blue. Patterson (15): It’s new and unusual for the Kings - maybe even a bit bland, but they’re not terrible. (“Sacramento” across the chest and former commissioner David Stern’s encouraging words, “We are keeping the team in Sacramento,” near the bottom.) Walker (3): These are so lazy and unimaginative. The only thing saving this jersey from being black with white font is the blue outline. Jones (13): Just bring back the black jerseys Shaq and Penny Hardaway played in.Įdwards (6): Aren’t these the same as the Magic’s usual uniform? Another team that just completely punted on first down. (All-black jersey with metallic gray pinstripes.) I like the message behind it, but this ain’t it. You can find this at a store in the mall right next to the Will Smith “Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” uniform, which is right next to the Wu-Tang-inspired All-Star shorts. Not impressed.Įdwards (1): This jersey looks like a bootleg. ![]() The rose can’t even be seen when the jerseys are tucked in. The Warriors missed on a great opportunity to pay tribute to Oracle Arena, where they became the best version of themselves. Patterson (1): I was born and raised in the Bay Area, and I had to read about what this design was supposed to mean. ![]() Noble idea, but it looks like a novelty deal. Walker (17): I love the idea of celebrating women, but I wish the team and artist could’ve worked more critically on this design. (The yellow rose supports female leadership and empowerment. Without further ado, here are the rankings, starting from the bottom. The Jazz launched alternate jerseys earlier this year. (This explains the numbers in parentheses next to each writer’s name below.) Note that 29 of the 30 NBA teams are ranked, as Utah chose not to release a City Edition uniform this season. Our writers ranked each team using a scoring system where 29 points were given to their favorite jersey, all the way to one point given to their least favorite. NBA's City Edition jerseys for 2022-23 are out.
