The Detroit Pistons have unveiled two new looks for the 2022-23 NBA season so far.
In July, the team unveiled its Classic Edition uniforms, a replica of the road uniforms the Pistons donned from 1996 – 2001.

“To Pistons fans everywhere – we heard you, and this is for you,” said Mike Zavodsky, Chief Business Officer for the Detroit Pistons. “The teal jerseys represent a ‘colorful’ time in Pistons basketball and NBA history. We are thrilled to re-introduce the teal to a new generation of basketball fans, and can’t wait to see this version of Detroit Basketball suit up in them.”
Now the team has unveiled its Statement Edition uniform, which was inspired by a voicemail a fan left on the team’s answering machine.
Even a random voicemail from a fan can make a statement.
