I highly doubt it. My best guess is, the producers of these commercials only watch the NBA, if any basketball, and just don't know the difference.
Here, our association enforced jersey rules at all levels. I mentioned earlier that I had to deal with illegal jerseys in a middle school season opener. My interpreter recently informed our association those jerseys were sent back to be fixed with legal numbers. Sometimes, you have to be the guy who deals with this stuff, so someone else doesn't have to.
