Suns Primary Logo
The Phoenix Suns' primary logo has gone through several iterations over the years, reflecting changes in the team's identity and branding. The first iteration of their logo was created in 1968 when they joined the NBA as an expansion team. This original design featured a yellow basketball with a purple sunburst behind it, both set against an orange background. It was used by the Suns until 1992 when they unveiled their new look which featured a black and white cartoon-style sun wearing sunglasses with its tongue sticking out to one side.
Overall, despite some subtle changes throughout history – most notably between 1992-2013 – Phoenix Suns' primary logos have remained fairly consistent since joining NBA back in 1968; keeping true to classic aspects like color combinations & stylized imagery while evolving just enough over time to stay relevant within today's ever-changing sports landscape
Phoenix Suns
2001 - 2014
In 2001, the logo concept stayed the same with some minor changes. The shape stayed the same along with the layout. The rectangle now has two rounded corners, and the background is gray—the wordmark "PHOENIX SUNS" is white with a black trim. The orange basketball has a thicker black outline but still has the orange streaking tails with the jagged star.
