NBA Rumors: Magic, Warriors, Raptors to get new jerseys?
By Bryan Rose
When it comes to uniforms, there’s no more accurate source than Uni Watch. So it shouldn’t go without mention that the Orlando Magic, Golden State Warriors and Toronto Raptors may all have a new uniform in their arsenal soon.
According to Uni Watch, both the Magic and Warriors will be receiving new sleeved jerseys (what I assume to be for next season) while the Toronto Raptors will get a new/updated version of their original purple uniform.
The Warriors – who are set to debut two new uniforms – will have a sleeved jersey in a very dark gray color with a grey logo and yellow numbers. They will also reportedly have a black jersey with red and gold trim. This jersey is said to have Chinese characters on the front where the numbers would normally be, so that could be a play on the NBA’s Chinese heritage promotion.
As for the Magic, they’re expected to have a jersey similar to their current home uniform though it will be sleeved and gray.
The Raptors new uniform is essentially nothing more than a throwback – though it possibly could have some updated looks.
The Los Angeles Lakers and Chicago Bulls also reportedly had new uniforms but it’s believed they were being used as templates for the 2015 NBA All-Star jerseys.
There are no photos right now, but we’ll update soon as they come across the wire.
