OT: Timberwolves honor Prince with Purple Rain-inspired alternates

Slightly off-topic but it seems like we have a lot of Prince fans around here, and on top of that there's the whole Stauskus-Game-Blouses meme. Being from Minnesota I'm a big Prince fan and also a sports aesthetics junkie so this hits the sweet spot. 

The ESPN article provides a good look at the unis themselves. 

The SPIN article embeds the badass uni intro video plus the Chappelle bit.

Man, those jerseys are cool. But after the game they will be really dirty. They're going to need to purify them in the waters of Lake Minnetonka...

Yeah, IMO not sure he's a hero worth honoring.   How did he die?

They are just trying to sell jerseys.
