The Cleveland Cavaliers are a relatively young organization, but they have had many jerseys. What are the best five?
Ranking the Cleveland Cavaliers jerseys is more than the aesthetic quality of the uniform. It’s more than a quality color way and a lasting logo. It’s also about the history that comes along with these jerseys.
In the Cavaliers short history, they’ve had one of the most notable.
First, they were the Cinderella tale after drafting a legendary point guard at Notre Dame who was injured in his NBA career, but still beating a better team in the 1976 NBA playoffs.
Then, they were the doormat for Michael Jordan‘s arrival, yes. They were also had one of the best big threes the NBA has ever had, a group that featured three Cavaliers legends. Then, they were the King’s men.

While there have been notable jerseys and seasons, there have been not-so notable jerseys and seasons as well. Seasons as bad as the jersey and vice versa.
