The Golden State Warriors have unveiled their Warriors Origins jersey for 2021-22 season, presented by Rakuten. New jerseys will serve as the team’s 2021-22 Classic Edition uniform.
The Warriors Origins jersey is a modern-era spin on the team’s 1961-62 road uniform, the 16th and final season that the team played in Philadelphia prior to the team’s move to the West Coast the following season. Additionally, the Warriors unveiled a new 75th anniversary logo today in celebration, which will be featured throughout the 2021-22 NBA season.
Warriors Origins celebrates the team’s 16-year tenure in Philadelphia, which included a pair of NBA championships (1947 & 1956) and included several individual league records that still stand to this day—highlighted by Wilt Chamberlain’s 100-point game on March 2, 1962 vs. the New York Knicks.
This season also marks the NBA’s 75th anniversary. The Warriors, along with the Boston Celtics and New York Knicks, are one of three charter members of the NBA still in existence. The Warriors have been one of the most successful organizations in the history of the league, winning six (6) NBA championships, producing 27 Hall of Famers and establishing several all-time NBA records, both individual and team.
Golden State will debut the Warriors Origins jersey at the team’s 2021-22 home opener. The 2021-22 schedule will be announced at a later date.
