Atlanta Hawks
Atlanta Hawks’ history paves back to 1946. It was then known as the Tri-Cities
Blackhawks being shared by three neighboring river cities:
The team’s jersey has changed a lot over time. Green and Blue were their
colors in the early 1970s. Then, they sported a red road uniform with pinstripes in the piping on the
side and around the neck. The Hawks wore it from 1972-1975. The outline of Hawk
within a circle was the franchise's logo since 1972 until it was changed to a huge scary hawk with its wing spread wide open
and claws firmly gripping a ball, which they incorporated into their jerseys.
Today, the Hawks ditched the hawk in their uniforms and
subtly incorporates a hawk silhouette in the "A" of the “HAWK” across
the top of their jerseys. They also went
back to one solid body color for both the home uniform, which is in white, and red
for the road games.
