Utah Jazz to Change Colors, Uniforms

Jazz will adjust color palette for next season

AUBURN HILLS, Mich. — Wondering why it seems so easy to find Jazz wear on the sale rack lately?

No, the NBA team is not going out of business. There is, however, cause for clearance craziness.

The Jazz will have new uniforms for the 2004-05 NBA season, say sources named neither Ralph Lauren nor P. Diddy.

Fear not, logo lovers, the mountain peaks apparently aren't going anywhere.

But there is a new scheme in the works for a franchise whose players previously have worn everything from the gaudiest of greens to more purple than even Barney keeps in his closet.

In for the fall: navy blue and light blue, with just a pinch of purple. Out altogether: that drab rusty-copper kind of color that works so well with, well, very little.

But don't scurry to the mall just yet.

Additional details and mock-ups of the new fashion line are not expected to be revealed by the hush-hush Jazz until sometime next week, though industry insiders from Paris to Provo promise it will be worth the wait.
