With LeBron James joining the team this summer, the Lakers have decided to make some uniform changes, but they haven't officially unveiled the new look. However, it appears the organization could be returning to the similar font and style from the "Showtime Lakers" of the 1980s.

Arash Markazi of ESPN showed the difference Tuesday after seeing the new jerseys:

Considering Magic Johnson is the current president of basketball operations, it wouldn't be surprising to see him push to bring back his old style of jerseys. Adding in the excitement with James joining the roster, and these new uniforms could fly off the shelves.
