Known globally for its association with the famed 'Dream Team' from the 1992 Barcelona Olympics, the existing logo had great equity which needed to be brought into a new age. The new logo strives to retain all of the iconic elements of the previous mark (split typography, star and ball) but combine them in a more modern, purposeful way, with emphsis on creating a badge that adapted well for use on apparel.
