As a continued tribute to Toronto (and Drake, and also, uh, Nike), the Raptors have officially revealed their new NBA City Edition jersey for the 2018-19 season. Much like last year, the jersey is a solid shade with a large gold chevron and the block letters spelling out NORTH. Not to lean on a tired adage here but: if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.
There is a twist though: this year the jersey is white instead of black. Gasp.
I’ll let the Raptors’ PR machine do the rest of the work here, And yes, I realize we saw a sneak peek at this jersey way back on Media Day when a grainy photo of Kawhi Leonard wearing the jersey leaked — but look how much nicer they look in the official photos!
