Celtics unveil ‘City Edition’ jerseys that resemble championship banners

The Celtics revealed another jersey in their uniform repertoire on Friday, unveiling their “City Edition” uniforms for the 2020-21 NBA season.

If the jerseys look familiar to you, you may recognize that they are modeled after the 17 NBA championship banners that hang in the rafters of TD Garden.

The uniform has a solid white base with green coloring projected on the wordmark, number, and taping. The wordmark has the same font as the championship banners and includes the full “Boston Celtics” name, marking the first jersey in the franchise’s history to include that.

The jersey also includes a quote from legendary Celtics coach and executive Red Auerbach that reads: “The Boston Celtics are not a basketball team, they’re a way of life.
