Suns bring back retro jerseys for 30th anniversary of historic season

State of play: The team announced the new uniforms Tuesday with a video of Deandre Ayton sporting the retro jersey, along with other throwbacks to the early '90s, like old-school corded phones, disposable point-and-click cameras and, best of all, the classic arcade game NBA Jam.

• Anyone nostalgic about the Suns team that lost to Michael Jordan's Chicago Bulls will love the video's footage of the 1992-93 team.

Details: The Suns will wear the new (by which we mean old) uniforms at least 20 times this season, Graham Wincott, the team's senior director of marketing, told The Arizona Republic.

• Any fan who wants the jersey may be able to buy one as early as Oct. 1.

My thought bubble: The uniforms that the Suns wore in the 1992-93 are still my favorite, though I do really like the team's "The Valley" jerseys.

• I loved the video, and hope it inspires Ayton to unleash his inner Charles Barkley this season.
• I still see John Paxson's game-winning 3-pointer from 1993 in my nightmares, so here's hoping the 2022-23 season has a better ending for the Suns.
