The “We Believe” Warriors, who shocked the Mavericks in the first round of the 2007 playoffs, popularized the jersey. They were only the third No. 8 seed to advance to the second round. Since then, two more teams have achieved the same feat.
Stephen Curry, the guard of the Warriors, was particularly excited about the jerseys. He wore a No. 8 Monta Ellis jersey to Sunday’s game against the Clippers in tribute to his ex-teammate.

The Warriors adopted their current jerseys and color scheme in the 2010-11 season. Since then, they have experienced one of the most prosperous periods in NBA history, clinching championships in three out of the last four seasons. As the playoffs kick off this Saturday, they have their eyes set on a fourth title.
After the game, Golden State honored its arena.
