With just about a month to go before the start of the NBA season, numerous teams are now taking to Twitter to show off their brand new City Edition jerseys. These uniforms always lead to some split reactions on social media, which is certainly what happened with the Los Angeles Lakers and Miami Heat, who have all revealed their new uniforms over the past few weeks. Even the San Antonio Spurs unveiled their City Edition jerseys although those were universally beloved.

The latest team to deliver some insight into what they have planned for next season is the Oklahoma City Thunder. With this jersey, the team sought to embrace the city's diversity while also paying homage to its industries. As you can see, the jersey is mostly black with diagonal blue and orange patches near the top.
