Atlanta Hawks Bring Back Beloved MLK City Jerseys

The Atlanta Hawks announced they will bring back their MLK City Edition uniforms next season, telling fans "You asked, we listened." Maria Taylor revealed the news during Peacock coverage of Atlanta’s Martin Luther King Jr. Day game, and supporters welcomed the return of the jerseys honoring Dr. King. Merlin sees more than a costume change. Reviving the MLK kit restores a symbol of community and should spark retail demand and goodwill, reminding fans that the franchise hears its base. If the reception is strong, the Hawks may keep these uniforms as an annual tradition tied to the MLK Day schedule.
