Indiana Pacers: Ranking the past 5 city edition uniforms
By Zach Pearson
I am a huge fan of this uniform. When you piece together the whole thing, to me it is as clean as it gets. I am talking about the 2019-20 city edition.
The team that dawned them would be the last team to go to a playoff in what could be some time for this franchise. They were swept by the Miami Heat in the bubble.
To me, the white version of this 2017-18 uniform is better than the original rendition. I think the blue stripe goes much better and the logo on the shorts seems to pop. Also, there is a flow to the stripe in this model – the white makes you focus on the stripe because it is the only color. That I dig.
The racing number is also great and I love that it is circled in blue on top of no color. It is clean and has a better appeal to the eye.
Doug McDermott was so fun to watch in an Indiana jersey. He really picked up his game this season, getting to the rim occasionally and showing the ability to finish. Watching him come off screens and shot was the best.
Doug averaged 10.3 points per game this season and shot 43.5% from deep on 4.3 attempts per game. He led the team in three-point percentage and only Justin Holiday and T.J. Warren shot above 40% that year.
