Wizards Alternate Logo

The Washington Wizards have a long and storied history when it comes to their alternate logos. The first alternate logo was introduced in 2001, and since then the team has created several more unique designs that represent both the city of Washington DC as well as its basketball team. The most recent logo was unveiled in 2019, but before that, there were many other memorable designs over the years.

The original design from 2001 featured an image of a wizard holding up a basketball with “Washington” written across his chest. This design lasted for three seasons until 2004 when it was replaced by another version featuring two stars above the wordmark and “Wizards” below it instead of “Washington” being written on top like before. In 2010, this look changed again to incorporate more white into its color scheme while still retaining some red elements from previous versions; this is also known as one of their classic looks which remains popular today among fans who remember these older logos fondly.

In 2017 however, things took an interesting turn with yet another new look: this time featuring five stars around a blue circle representing each member state within America's capital district – Maryland, Virginia & DC itself! Finally, after two years, they decided upon something different once again; introducing us all to what we now know today - A shield-shaped crest centered around four stars surrounded by navy blue & gold colors which symbolize strength & loyalty respectively - truly fitting for such an iconic franchise! All these changes over time show just how much thought goes into creating each logo iteration making sure every detail fits perfectly together so fans can be proud wearing any piece of merchandise associated with them no matter what era or decade you're from!
