“Uniforms do matter to players. Our team made the choice to wear the Earned jerseys during the 2019 Finals, for example. We want to give our players -- and our fans -- jerseys they’re proud to wear not just because they say Raptors on the front, not just because they’re a symbol of our city and country, but because they also look great. I think that’s what we’ve achieved with these.”- Raptors President Masai Ujiri
