In honor of the ubiquitous celebrations of the NBA’s 75th anniversary, the Boston Celtics have been holding a number of commemorative events, joining in the festivities along with the other 29 franchises. As one of the oldest franchises, dating to the league’s earliest days, its introduction of uniforms harkening back to the Association’s first days is one such example.
On its “Lockervision” website, the NBA posted the designs of Boston’s classic, icon, statement and association editions for the soon-to-arrive 2021-22 season. The classic jerseys incorporate design work and cuts reminiscent of those worn by the Celtics in the NBA’s inaugural season.
Check out the images below to see them for yourself — and stay tuned for the city edition jerseys, due to come out later in the season.
This is every player in Boston’s history who wore the Celtics’ No. 31 jersey for at least one game. https://t.co/Z6uvzl9Cjt
