The Houston Rockets' new city edition uniforms are a modern tribute to the back-to-back championship teams of the 1990s. But the jerseys are also the conclusion of a two-part story that the Rockets design team started telling last year with its "Hometown Heroes" collection.

It is rare when a team can feature two defensive-minded wings capable of dismantling an opponent's game plan. That the Houston Rockets have two such players coming off their bench makes for an even more unique set of circumstances.
