It'd be hilarious if Adidas bought the ad on the other shoulder
Out of all those companies though, I'd guess Gatorade or American Express. |

I'd be fine with any of those sponsor patches. |
Adidas would be funny though |
Ucla Health makes the most sense. |

Does Nike know what they are doing besides changing the styles just to generate new sales since they own the jersey rights?
*bleah* Each one of the new jerseys look like cousins of the terribly plain and uncreative Brooklyn Nets.
If they want to change fine, but just don't change the typeface and call it a design.

Wolves went with radical redesign to coincide with their raised expectations.
Font is pretty plain but I like it over that old B-Horror movie one from the KG days. I like the overall redesign.

Actually I think you are right on the wolves one. It is still just text but at least their typeface has a little bit of creativity.
But so far the bucks, suns, and I forgot the Pacers uniforms look like something that took little effort and thought. Not in a good way either.
Does not bold well for an overall style.

It's coming. Can't say who, but deal was just made. |
That's too bad. I thought abstaining from the ads would've made the Laker brand stronger. Wishful thinking, but the team isn't hurting for money after the Spectrum deal. |

Loved this new Wolves jersey. Those B-Horror movies (great description ) jerseys from KG days were ugly af. _________________ .... |

I think these values for the sponsor patches are a bit low. Reportedly, Boston (rivalries aside, it's a tier 1 jersey) got $ 8M for the GE deal and I believe the Lakers should get something around it, maybe a bit more.
I know in football (or soccer for you ) sponsorship is not just a small patch, but a full chest ad, but teams command much more money. Barcelona has one of the most expensive sponsorship deals and they make 55 million euros (close to $ 65 M) per year.
I believe this value will grow a lot in the next few years. TV transmissions in basketball have a lot of close ups which will make this small patch much bigger in the screen. They may have a brand exposure as good as those big soccer jersey ads in TV, considering soccer is transmitted from a bigger distance. _________________ .... |

Ever since I saw the gold door at the practice facility I have been wondering if our new jersey concept is going to somehow incorporate real gold rather than yellow. |

Like metallic gold? Didn't the Kings try that and create one of the most hideous monstrosities in jersey history? |

Those were a lot of gold, maybe something more subtle. With a gold that is a bit darker and more yellow than the Kings' gold. |

Solid gold. That way taking a charge means the offensive player is injured for the rest of the year _________________ Kobe |

on second thought, it might be because they seem to be wearing triple their size, length wise _________________ Kobe |

Not surprising. When you are a tradition team with a rich history, the uniform is not going to really change |

They'll grow on you. I think LeBron and PG13 would look great in them |
