On the heels of their Classic Edition jersey reveal, the Utah Jazz have unveiled their full uniform schedule for the 2018-19 season.

Earlier this week, the Utah Jazz’s new Classic Edition uniforms were revealed to overwhelming praise from the Jazzland masses. As a jersey aficionado, my first thought was “take my money!” when I laid eyes on the ’80s and ’90s-inspired threads. Simply put, the purple, green and gold is back in a big, bad way.

Now, with a handful of exceptions, we know the Jazz’s planned jersey schedule for the whole of the upcoming NBA season. It breaks well if you’re a fan of the team’s white Association Edition kits.

As it stands, the Jazz will rock their white duds 23 times during the regular season. Hopefully, they yield better results on the floor this time around. During the 2017-18 campaign, the Jazz wore white on 24 occasions and went 13-11 in those games.

Last year’s go-to kit, the blue Icon Edition set, is only pegged for 10 games in ’18-19 after the Jazz used it in 28 games a season ago. Maybe that’s for the best — the Jazz were a .500 team at 14-14 when they were feeling blue.

Next up is my personal favorite jersey from last year, the team’s gold Statement Edition uniform. Much to my delight, the team sported this kit 21 times in ’17-18 and put together an impressive 15-6 record when they did so. They’re currently slated to wear the gold jerseys 15 times this season.

While the gold shirts were my No. 1, the gradient City Edition jerseys were the big hit for Jazz fans. As a result, the team will wear them 14 times in ’18-19, which is up from nine a year ago. For the record, the Jazz were 6-3 in those games.

Here’s the current plan for team’s two winningest and most stylish uniforms —

Finally, we have the new Classic kit. As it stands, the Jazz will wear purple gear on nine occasions. The schedule shakes out as follows —

Next. Utah Jazz rank '18-19: Georges Niang is No. 14. dark

Now, I’m no math wiz, but all of this adds up to a uniform plan for 71 of the squad’s 82 games. The Jazz will also wear a special jersey for their Christmas Day bout with the Portland Trail Blazers. That presumably leaves 10 dates that the team can play around with. I, for one, vote for more purple and gold.

No more ugly whites, please.
