They do look slightly more modern. This Kings jerseys are clean. I'm hella confused with the home/away jersey selection though.

I HATED the way Adidas Rev-30 jerseys looked......The material just looked cheap to me and they absolutely destroyed some of the designs to certain Jerseys. I'm sure the NBA thought the same which is why Adidas and the NBA didn't re-up on their deal.



This is an upgrade. This looks to be an upgraded version of the Nike Dri-Fit jerseys from the early 2000s (Lakers, Raptors wore them)

The size of the Nike Swoosh is absurd tho.

The material was better but didnt have a better feel as the rev30, and it was heavier. The Jerseys were not the reason Adidas left the NBA

We haven’t been able to elevate our brand for the basketball consumer that we’re targeting,” Grancio said. “We ultimately decided that we would change our investment strategy and invest more in players on the court".
Adidas won’t attempt to extend apparel contract with NBA
