PrintI was perusing the News 14 Carolina sports pages when I found this article about the new NBA rookies getting their trading card photos.
Look at what Gerald Henderson is wearing! Looks mighty different to me. I haven't been able to find out any more information on this new jersey but it seems to be more in line with the way the current NBA jerseys are going. It may be a new 3rd alt jersey, but I find it harsd to believe they'd put that on a trading card.
What do you think about this new jersey design?

I love pinstripes, so we’ll see. From a brief glimpse, it looks like a mix of the ’Cats unis, the Magic, and a little homage to the old Hornets.

Just got an email back from BJ Evans, Bobcats PR Director. He wrote that they’re looking at new unis and there’ll be more details next month.

Great info thanks...
sounds like a PR department trying to cover up a leak to me though.
I bet these jerseys will be unveiled next month, I think they look great.
Is it just me or..
did it seem like the bobcats all but abandoned the orange road jerseys the last half of the season last year? Could this be a replacement?
The plan was to phase them out and go all-blue at some point. I think that actually got delayed a year, too.

Even more proof, you will notice that on the Bobcats site you can’t buy jerseys anymore. They do look like a mix of the Magic & old Hornets jerseys. Love the pinstripes.

Don’t see the Baseline post, but QC Sports Blog has a good picture.

Sad.
This makes the odds of a total rebrand even more unlikely.
Remember, kids...don't ever let facts get in the way of your argument.

They look a lot like the Magic's current unis
The number font, pinstripes, and collar piping indeed resemble Orlando’s newest threads.
