The Milwaukee Bucks have gone blue. Today the team unveiled its new 2020-2021 City Edition uniform, the team's first to incorporate a blue color scheme.
"The uniform features three unique shades of blue that represent the three rivers that run through Milwaukee, as well as the depths of Lake Michigan," the team explained in a tweet.
And the color scheme isn't the only thing unusual about the uniforms. "The numbers on the jersey are treated with a special coating that will reflect the light in a way that gives the illusion that the numbers themselves are wet," the team explained.
