The NBA unveiled the third of four new uniforms its teams will wear as part of a new apparel deal with Nike that launched this summer.
Young Wolves star Karl-Anthony Towns modeled the new uni at a Los Angeles event, where a player from all 30 teams represented Friday night.
It’s a neon green outfit that is supposed to be reminiscent of Minnesota and its ethereal northern lights that league calls its teams “statement edition.
The uniforms were one of three what a league news release called “innovations.”
Also included is what the league calls a “connected jersey” that has “NikeConnect” technology: Each adult-sized connected jersey has an embedded chip that will launch real-time team and player information after jersey buyers download an app and tap the jersey with their smartphone.
