Nike officially releases NBA “Statement” jerseys

At a special event in Los Angeles on Friday night, Nike officially released the third installment of its new line of jerseys: the “Statement” jersey. Unlike the previous two jersey releases that were done by individual teams over the course of the summer, this release was truly a special event as players and representatives from all 30 teams were present to unveil the new uniforms all at once.

Alongside stars like Kevin Durant, Paul George and J.J. Barea, new Denver Nuggets forward Paul Millsap was on hand to represent Denver in the release:

Of course, this event comes a few days after the jerseys were already leaked on the NBA2K video game but it’s still cool to see the actual thing. It definitely looks a lot cleaner in real life compared to video game screenshots. Plus, it’s great to see Millsap already involved at a prominent event like this to represent Denver. He looks real good, and we can’t wait to see him and the others in these jerseys next season!
