LOS ANGELES LAKERS

Each season the Lakers use their City Edition uniform to honour a player from their past, in previous seasons there have been uniforms for Kobe Bryant and Magic Johnson. This season, the honour goes to Shaquille O’Neal (you can see his signature in the bottom right of the photo next to the “LORE SERIES” logo). The jersey is designed to resemble the style of uniform the Lakers wore during Shaq’s tenure with the team which was during the late 90s and early 00s.

MILWAUKEE BUCKS

Cream with “Cream City” across the front, a reference to Milwaukee’s nickname due to the cream coloured bricks used in a lot of the local architecture. It’s why the Bucks use cream in their colour scheme and why baseball’s Brewers recently announced their home uniform would be cream instead of the usual white. Like the Bulls, the blue is in recognition of Lake Michigan.

Toronto’s new City Uniform leaked late the evening of November 19th and was officially unveiled by the Raptors on November 22nd. It’s a black jersey with gold elements (there’s the Drake influence again). For the first time in several seasons, the Raptors will wear a uniform that reads “TORONTO” across the front to the delight of this Raps fan. The script is in the same style as the Raptors inaugural season uniform while the numbers are in the modern-day design. The back of the jersey continues the retro/modern theme by adding the same name bar design as the original 1995 uniforms.
