The Atlanta Hawks unveiled their new uniforms before the media and season ticket holders at Philips Arena on Tuesday.
While they have many fans for the Nike-inspired, Oregon Ducks-inspired uniforms that are meant to attract the new millennials were mocked by a large pocket of the social media platform.
Take a look at the responses:
I don’t follow basketball too much, but I think the #AtlantaHawks‘ new logo looks like Pac-Man is finally getting off his diet.

I hate this fad stuff with unis. In college fine but the pros? ATL Hawks will alter these in three years and change within 5 #AtlantaHawks

You know what’s sad? These new Atlanta Hawks jerseys are still better than the new Los Angeles Clippers jerseys! https://t.co/WcPSxVqLT8
