SALT LAKE CITY, Utah – Now that we are less than one month away from the restart of the 2019-20 season, graphic designers and fans are getting creative to put Disney ties to uniforms, logos and other things.
Slam Studios tweeted out jersey designs that have a Disney spin since the NBA will restart their season in Orlando on the Disney World bubble. The Jazz will play in the first game of the restart against the New Orleans Pelicans on July 30 at 4:30 p.m. MT on TNT and AT&T SportsNet.
With the NBA restart going to the Happiest Place on Earth, here are the jersey designs from Slam Studios that have a Disney tie.
Note: These are just fun designs and will not be the actual jerseys worn in Orlando.
Utah Jazz
Slam Studios used the Jazz classic uniforms with the purple mountains. They put the Disney castle logo on the jersey to replace the mountain while putting the Jazz note in front with snow flakes outlining the ball. They are putting a “Frozen” theme on the redesigned jersey for the Jazz.

This spin that they took for the Los Angeles Clippers jersey is pretty cool. They took the black uniform and made some tweaks to it to put a Pirates of the Caribbean touch to it.
