PHOTO: Cavaliers to reportedly wear black, sleeved alternates
The Cleveland Cavaliers are reportedly set to add another look for the 2015-16 season.
The Cavaliers will don a black, short-sleeved alternate jersey this season, as released by graphic designer Conrad Burry.

The design noticeably doesn't feature the team's name on the front. It also has sleeves, which can't sit well with LeBron James, who met with NBA Commissioner Adam Silver to shoot down the new look when it was first introduced in the 2013-14 season.
The new simplified jersey also bares a resemblance to the sweaters worn by the Calgary Flames, as many observers noted on Twitter.

Expanding the catalog, however, can't hurt for the Cavaliers, who profit from the league's top-selling jersey.
