“In creating a new uniform, we wanted a clean, modern style that would also honor our past,” said Sixers Chief Executive Officer Scott O’Neil. “These designs integrate key elements of uniforms worn by legends Wilt Chamberlain, Julius Erving and Billy Cunningham, and bring them together in one seamless presentation. The uniform reflects another key element of our updated brand identity reflecting a spirit of strength and patriotism which we cannot wait to share with our fans.”
The event’s guest list includes Sixers legends Billy Cunningham, Darryl Dawkins, Moses Malone, Bobby Jones and Allen Iverson and special guest Barbara Chamberlain-Lewis, sister of the late Wilt Chamberlain, in addition to current Sixers players and staff.
Programming for the event will be hosted by Sixers Television Broadcaster Marc Zumoff, Sixers Sideline Reporter Molly Sullivan and in-arena host Christian Crosby. Fans will be treated to a series of dynamic digital presentations and Q & A sessions with special guests as well as special appearances by Sixers Dancers, Sixers Phlight Squad and mascot Franklin.
The Sixers jersey will be available for pre-order at SIXERS.COM immediately after the unveiling (NOTE: Jerseys will not ship to consumers until September, 2015).
Expect the 76ers to go with a clean look, similar to the one the Milwaukee Bucks just unveiled.
