Toronto Raptors show off new uniforms that honour their championship-winning squad

The Toronto Raptors will have a piece of their 2019 championship team with them when they step out on the court this season.

And while none of that team's roster plays for the franchise anymore, the organization has found a new way to honour them: with their City Edition jersey for the season.

On Monday, the Raptors officially announced one of their alternate looks for this season, confirming earlier leaks.

The look actually shows a jersey within a jersey, with the team's mascot wearing a red-and-white Raptors uniform on a black background.

The Raptors' mascot is wearing No. 19 instead of his usual No. 95, which is an obvious nod to the title.

The jersey choice of the mascot is also a reference to the 2018-19 Raptors' City Edition jersey, or as the team put it, "placing our dino in the threads that carried us to a championship ring in 2019," given that they wore them for a title-clinching Game 6 in the 2019 NBA Finals.

Notably, the team opted to choose Scottie Barnes to market the jersey launch, who has been arguably the team's most popular player since he was drafted fourth overall back in 2021. After the departure of Chris Boucher this past summer, he's actually now the longest-tenured Raptor, despite only being in his fifth year in the NBA.

The uniform is largely similar to the team's 2021-22 City Edition jersey, which featured the same design in black-and-gold colours as a nod to Drake's OVO brand.

The jersey is available now via the team's official shop at Real Sports, starting at $179.99 for the Swingman style. Barnes, Gradey Dick, Brandon Ingram, Immanuel Quickley, RJ Barrett, Collin Murray-Boyles, and Jakob Poeltl are the seven players with pre-made jerseys available, though custom options are also a possibility.
