The L.A. Clippers new City Edition jerseys appear to have leaked just days before their expected release.

Per Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints, a player was seen wearing the jersey the other day at practice, which may be a sign that the team is about to announce them soon. The first day teams are able to play in them are November 9th.

As for the Clippers' jerseys, several fans have chimed in their reactions, noting that the City Edition uniforms have a retro and classic feel to it if confirmed to be the jerseys.

Lawler, who has commentated over 3,000 games for the Clippers, announced that this 40th season will be his final one as the team's voice. The City Edition jersey is a simple act of gratitude for the service that Lawler has given to the Clippers franchise.
