What is the New Orleans Jazz Logo?

The Jazz franchise began life in New Orleans as the New Orleans Jazz for the 1974-75 NBA season.

A purple, gold, and green basketball was worked into the J-note and the city name NEW ORLEANS was added in black italics to the upper right. The colour scheme of purple, gold, and green was chosen as it matched those of the famous Mardi Gras celebrations held in New Orleans.
