In NBA basketball, the home team used to almost always wear a white uniform and the away team would wear a non-white uniform that matched one of their team colors. Now it’s kind of all over the place. I assume it’s because Nike wanted to sell more jerseys. For The Pudding, Tyler Machado quantified the shift by manually counting uniform usage during the 2013-14 season and comparing it against data from last season collected via NBA LockerVision.
Select your team to see the changes, unless your team is the Chicago Bulls, in which case, not much has changed.
I’m so glad the basketball season is back.
