While there's been camouflage uniforms in Major League Baseball, the NHL and other college sports, there's never been one in the NBA. That is, until now.
In this exclusive photo, posted by ESPN.com, the Toronto Raptors have become the first to ever create a camo uniform.
The camo design will make its on-court debut March 21, as part of Canadian Forces Night, and will be worn three more times after that, said the network. It reflects the Raptors' ownership group's longstanding commitment to support of the Canadian military.
The Raptors' camo is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to new uniforms in the 2011-12 NBA season. Others include the Bobcats making a logo change, the Cleveland Cavaliers will rock "CavFanatic" uni designs for a handful of games in the New Year, and the New Orleans hornets will wear Mardi Gras uniforms for six games in February, among others.
