Look, the NBA City jerseys are not good. Most of them are gray, which is the most boring trend in uniform design in any of the four major sports over the last decade or so.
A bunch more are just straight up ugly, or run on motifs that make sense contextually but don’t push the right buttons aesthetically.
But the Brooklyn Nets jerseys? Those are beautiful.
On Saturday the Nets debuted their City jerseys, inspired by Brooklyn native Biggie Smalls, and published an incredible hype video that featured several players and locations around the borough.

The coloring on the jersey is Coogi-inspired. Coogi is a fashion brand known for similar patterns, which Biggie was fond of wearing both in music videos and on stage.
What do you think? Is this Nets jersey the best City uniform?
