The Atlanta Hawks, Los Angeles Clippers, Milwaukee Bucks, and Philadelphia 76ers each unveiled new uniform changes for the upcoming season - and now the Indiana Pacers just blew them all out of the water.
Pacers point guard George Hill announced on Twitter Tuesday morning that the team will wear exact replicas of the fictional Hickory High School basketball jerseys, made famous by the cult-classic movie "Hoosiers." The uniform will be an alternate as part of the NBA Pride Collection. The Pacers will wear the uniform on select game days.
