The Phoenix Suns will have a new look next season.
Sort of.
According to Uni-Watch.com, many
NBA teams will be adding a jersey for next season,
including the Suns.
“I saw the Spring 2013 Adidas NBA Catalog and there are
some new on-court offerings,” says Chris Blackstone.
“There are new jerseys for Christmas Day and for home
weekend games during the second half of season, called the
Winter Court jerseys. They’re monochrome like the all-
black Miami uniforms from the past couple years, but in
team colors. Also, there are Hardwood Classic jerseys for
Indiana (home from 1997-98 through 2004-05), Milwaukee
(late ’90s), Chicago (mid-’90s alternate), Atlanta
(late-’90s road), Miami (late-’90s alternate), Sacramento
(mid-’90s alternate), Phoenix (1990s alternate),
Philly (early-’90s road), Cleveland (mid-’90s road),
Toronto (late-’90ss home), Houston (late-’90s road), and
Utah (late-’90s road).”
Nice.
The jersey, which debuted in the mid-90s and was worn
until the team changed its look in 2000, is black with the
“sun burst” across the chest.
It is unknown how many times the Suns will don the black
jerseys and in which games they will do so, but the
important thing is they will wear them.
