hmmmm im skeptic about that jersey. IMO it could very well be one of those black and white NBA jerseys that you can find in stores pretty much anywhere and of any big name player in the league.
Does't usually every jersey have atleast 3 colors in them no matter what? Even if it's a tiny bit of black like the Kings away purple jerseys, for example...
Are there any other jerseys in the league that have absolutely only 2 colors like that one has?

One of the worst kept secrets in Raptorville is the fact the lads will be getting new uniforms of some sort next year.
No one's come out and said exactly what they'll look like because who wants to waste a big night of fashion coming closer to training camp, so we're just guessing here and most of the guess goes to personal preference.
How about an all-black third jersey, with red piping and white lettering? Cool? Yes.
Get rid of the purple all together; what self-respecting team wears purple anyway? Oh yeah, Lakers got some purple, guess that's pretty good, but it sure hasn't done much for the Minnesota Vikings, has it?
But no matter what the future holds, we're sure the good marketing geniuses at Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment (Official motto: 'Leaf tickets? Sure, as long as you like soccer!') have considered the past and won't repeat the mistakes of bygone eras. The good folks who actually run Nothin' but (Inter)Net (I'm just the typist) have come up with some photographic evidence of wrongs perpetrated on the basketball public in the past.
Look at those things!
No wonder Damon Stoudamire wanted of town after wearing those God-forsaken pinstriped things with the goofy dinosaur on them. They look like bad pyjamas.
And the road ones? The all purple ones? Made Oliver Miller look like the world's biggest grape.
Toss in those half-black, half-purple road jerseys, which made us think the manufacturers simply didn't have enough cloth of either hue and figured we're in Canada, why would we care.
Just think what all black could do.
Morris Peterson could have a cool black headband that falls over his eyes as he makes another circus shot and it'd look like a real blindfold.
Now that we think of it, some of these guys play like they're blindfolded anyway, why not make it part of the uni?
One thing is for sure, though:
The new ones will be on sale as soon as they can be manufactured.
