The Nike swoosh has officially entered the NBA realm.
On Tuesday, the new official uniform apparel company of the NBA kicked-off their eight-year agreement by providing fans a sneak peak of the new-lookuniforms.
In a news release, Nike revealed a minor tweak in jersey designations for the upcoming season:
The NBA is eliminating “Home” and “Road” uniform designations as it begins its partnership with Nike. Beginning with the 2017-18 season, home teams will pick which of their uniforms will be worn at all home games and visiting teams will choose a contrasting uniform within their own assortment.
Nike and the NBA worked together to create four primary uniforms for each team, classified as “editions,” which draw from the rich heritage of the NBA and its respective franchises
Instead of home-and-away jerseys, the NBA and Nike have worked together to form a core uniform package for each of the 30 teams in the league “which draw from the rich heritage of the NBA and its respective franchises.”
The Sacramento Kings unis have also be circulating around the net and are expected to include a sponsor that fits the NBA’s new 2×2 logo guidelines.
