Detroit Pistons to play in throwback teal uniforms for 10 games in 2022

The Detroit Pistons are throwing it back to the late 1990s, at least for a few games this season.

The Pistons unveiled their take on a classic colorway Tuesday: the team's iconic teal jerseys from 1996-2001, including the horse-inspired logo. Detroit will wear the uniforms for 10 games this upcoming season.

While the decision to bring back the jerseys appears to be fan-driven, the Pistons were not very successful during their six years wearing the old jerseys. Following the Bad Boys era of the late-1980s and early 1990s, the Pistons failed to win a playoff series and only eclipsed 50 wins in a season during their time in teal.
