Grizzlies vs Raptors Highlights 2019-20 NBA Throwback Uniform Schedule

The National Basketball Association will see plenty of throwback uniforms, officially known as “Classic Edition”, during the upcoming 2019-20 season as twelve teams will wear thirteen throwbacks a total of 156 times across 142 games.

We’ll see the return of the Buffalo Braves by way of the LA Clippers, the Vancouver Grizzlies from Memphis, and the San Francisco Warriors as Golden State marks their first season back to the West side of The Bay as well as many other classic uniforms from the 70s, 80s, and 90s.

But there’s two games in particular that have caught my eye in a big way…

For their home-and-home series at the end of March 2020, the Toronto Raptors and Memphis Grizzlies will face off against each other, both wearing each franchise’s expansion season uniform. That’s the giant-raptor-on-the-front home white uniform for Toronto and the old Vancouver Grizzlies teal road uniform for Memphis, facing off against one another for the first time in over twenty years!

Both games will played on retro-themed courts, the first on March 28th at Memphis with the follow-up two days later in Toronto. A great way to celebrate the 25th season for each team. Now all we need is to do is dig out the Naismith Cup.

In total there will be fourteen games during the 2019-20 NBA schedule that will see throwback vs throwback, as of now here’s that schedule:
Nov 7 – Portland at LA Clippers (Buffalo)
Nov 12 – Portland at Sacramento
Nov 22 – Golden State at Utah
Nov 23 – Portland at Cleveland
Nov 29 – Utah at Memphis (Vancouver)
Dec 3 – Portland at LA Clippers (Buffalo)
Dec 29 – Charlotte at Memphis (Vancouver)
Jan 14 – Cleveland at LA Clippers (Buffalo)
Feb 9 – LA Clippers (Buffalo) at Cleveland

Mar 30 – Memphis (Vancouver) at Toronto
Apr 2 – LA Clippers (Buffalo) at Sacramento
Apr 15 – LA Clippers (Buffalo) at Portland

All dates are subject to change, so heads up.

Here’s the complete team-by-team throwback uniform schedule, honestly it’s pretty surprising how many of these games are scheduled road appearances for these teams and uniforms.
