Alright, I’m a big time uni guy, and I have to fight myself not to report on every single bit of uniform news that comes out. Recently, I gave in and wrote about the NFL Shop releasing some fire ass red Titans jerseys. Now, it looks like the Memphis Grizzlies will be rolling out the ol’ Vancouver Grizzlies look for a few games next season. After this, I promise I’m at my quota of uniform “news” for the summer.
BREAKING: A team source confirms to @fastbreakbreak that the Memphis Grizzlies will wear Vancouver Grizzlies throwbacks for selected games in 2019-20. Official team jersey reveal in August

All for it. Obviously, because I caved in and ended up making a post about this “news.” But, this is such a good look.
I mean, between these and the first run of Toronto Raptors gear, this was the look of our childhood, y’know? I’m 33, and can still distinctly remember these things coming out and thinking it was going to revolutionize jersey design. That was a big deal to prepubescent Stoney.
Everyone wanted Vancouver Grizzlies stuff. Not because the team was any good, but because of that drip.
So, yeah – I’m happy to see these make a return next season. As if I couldn’t be any more excited about the future of Grizz basketball (not next season, but in a few…I’m a realist).
