The Philadelphia 76ers are turning back the clock in a big way for the 2025-26 season. The team officially unveiled its Nike NBA Hardwood Classic Edition uniform. The all-black look is a faithful throwback to the uniforms worn during the unforgettable 2000-01 season, a year that saw Allen Iverson lead the Sixers to the Eastern Conference title and an NBA Finals appearance.
That team, coached by Larry Brown and anchored by stars like Iverson, Dikembe Mutombo, Eric Snow, and Aaron McKie, left an indelible mark on the franchise and the city of Philadelphia. Former Sixer Eric Snow reflected on what the uniform means to him:
“Some of my favorite memories came when I was wearing this uniform. I enjoyed every moment of playing for my childhood team. This uniform represented the connection of players with the city and 76ers fans. Although we didn't accomplish our ultimate goal, I'm still thankful for the time I played in the 76ers uniform. Even now, I still meet people wherever I go who speak about the passion they had for our team and that run.”
The 2025-26 Hardwood Classic Edition uniform mirrors the 2000-01 design while being built on Nike’s updated performance chassis, engineered for today’s NBA athletes. From the bold black base to the retro typography and signature detailing, the kit brings back all the nostalgia while keeping performance front and center.
Lara Price, COO of the 76ers, spoke about the uniform’s meaning: “This uniform is more than just a piece of fabric; it represents an era of franchise history that embraced a distinct identity and captured the attention of the entire city. To see these uniforms back out on that court will bring back a lot of nostalgia, and we are excited to share that in many different ways with our fans this season.”
The Sixers will debut the Hardwood Classic Edition uniform and themed court on Saturday, Nov. 8, when they host the Toronto Raptors at Xfinity Mobile Arena. In total, the team will celebrate with 14 “25th Anniversary Celebration” nights presented by Crypto.com, featuring the throwback uniforms, custom merchandise, and special tributes to members of the 2000-01 squad.
The uniform will also make appearances on the road, with six additional games against playoff contenders from that storied season.
With the return of one of the most iconic looks in franchise history, the 2025-26 Sixers season promises to be a nostalgic celebration for fans in Philly and beyond.
The Brooklyn Nets have paired bold basketball moves with equally bold fashion statements. Since their move from New Jersey to Brooklyn in 2012, the Nets have embraced culture and creativity on the hardwood. Over the years, they’ve worked with collaborators ranging from KAWS to Jean-Michel Basquiat’s estate to deliver some of the league’s most memorable uniforms.
Now, the team is reviving one of its most beloved looks: the Notorious B.I.G.-inspired “Brooklyn Camo” jerseys, originally worn during the 2018-19 season.
The “Brooklyn Camo” design features Coogi-inspired multicolored striping down the sides, a nod to the legendary rapper’s signature style. The look was created in partnership with Biggie’s estate and quickly became a cult favorite, though limited production made them tough to find the first time around.
This season, the uniform is returning as part of the NBA’s new Remix program, which brings back some of the most popular City Edition jerseys from past years. For the Nets, the decision was easy. “We get constant requests from fans to bring back these uniforms,” said Andrew Karson, head of marketing for the Nets’ parent company, Brooklyn Sports & Entertainment. With demand never fading, the return of “Brooklyn Camo” feels like a natural fit.
The Nets are going all-in on celebrating Biggie’s legacy this season. Alongside the uniforms, the team will debut a custom court to match the theme, and the estate of the Notorious B.I.G. is helping organize a series of “Biggie Nights.” These games will feature halftime performances by artists with ties to Brooklyn or to Biggie himself, deepening the connection between the team, the borough, and its most iconic voice.
“Biggie is the loudest, coolest Brooklyn voice ever,” said Elliot Osagie, CEO and founder of Benin City Entertainment, which manages Biggie’s estate. By tying their brand to the late rap legend, the Nets continue to ground their identity in the borough they represent on and off the court.
The Washington Wizards have revealed their 2025-26 City Edition uniform. The team will debut the look on Sunday, November 16, when they host the Brooklyn Nets at Capital One Arena.
This year’s Encore City Edition pays homage to the Wizards’ iconic gold alternates worn between 2006 and 2009, while pushing the design forward through the 2021 Mixtape Edition chassis. Featuring a bold black and gold colorway, the uniform captures the energy of the mid-2000s while symbolizing the monuments lit across D.C. at night.
“Uniforms using the gold and black colorway has been a request from the fans as well as players since the City Edition concept debuted years ago,” said Rebecca Winn, Sr. Vice President of Wizards Marketing. “When Nike directed us to remix a former City Edition, we immediately thought of the classic Wizards uniform first worn in 2006. We think this version will look great on the team and on the court and the fans will be excited about the uniform and accompanying merchandise offerings as well.”
The jersey features reimagined striping across the shoulders and chest, echoing the 2006-2009 design with a modern twist. “Washington” is spelled across the front in the standard Wizards font, anchored by the silhouette of the Washington Monument. A sharp black outline runs along the neckline, shoulders, and numbers, contrasting against the gold base.
The shorts continue the theme with black side panels and waistband, accented by interior gold. The belt buckle showcases a revamped Wizards ball logo that blends retro inspiration with modern flair. On the left leg, the “DMV” insignia makes its return, symbolizing the unity of D.C., Maryland, and Virginia. The right side features the D.C. hands logo in white with a gold outline, framing the gold basketball against a black backdrop.
Alongside the uniform, the Wizards will also roll out a matching City Edition court that will be used during all City Edition games. Fans can expect to see the team wear this look 29 times throughout the season, cementing the black-and-gold as a staple of the Wizards’ identity for 2025-26.
The Philadelphia 76ers are bringing back a piece of history this season, unveiling a throwback court design that pays tribute to one of the most iconic chapters in franchise history: the 2000-01 campaign.
To celebrate the 25th anniversary of the team’s Eastern Conference Championship season, the Sixers will debut a hardwood design nearly identical to the one Allen Iverson played on during his unforgettable MVP run. That season, Iverson carried the Sixers to an NBA Finals appearance and cemented his place as one of the greatest players in league history.
The court design, complete with its early-2000s aesthetic, will transport fans right back to the era of A.I., Larry Brown, and the gritty squad that captured the heart of Philadelphia. From Iverson’s legendary step-over on Tyronn Lue to the team’s relentless fight throughout the playoffs, the design serves as both a visual and emotional throwback for Sixers fans.
The Sixers will play on the court 14 times throughout the season as part of their year-long celebration. Each game promises to carry an extra level of nostalgia as fans and players alike honor the team’s 2001 Eastern Conference Championship and the enduring legacy of one of the most beloved teams in franchise history.
This throwback court not only commemorates a milestone anniversary but also reconnects a new generation of fans to one of the defining moments in Sixers basketball.
The Oklahoma City Thunder have always embraced community pride, and this season, they’re taking that commitment to a deeper level. The team revealed its 2025-26 Nike NBA City Edition Uniform, a design rooted in Native American culture and Oklahoma’s Indigenous heritage. The uniform will make its on-court debut on November 19, when the Thunder host the Sacramento Kings on Native American Heritage Night at Paycom Center.
The new look builds on elements of the Thunder’s 2018-19 City Edition uniform, but this year’s version strengthens the connection to the state’s Native identity. At its core, the design blends historical symbols with modern aesthetics, telling a story of community, resilience, and shared pride. At the center of the jersey, interlocking geometric shapes form the letters “OKC,” symbolizing unity and strength. The duotone halves of the jersey are connected by water-like teeth inspired by the Oklahoma River, which binds the north and south sides of the city. On the waistband, a pattern of expanding squares reflects the growth of Oklahoma communities, borrowing influence from ceremonial regalia.
The uniform also features a hidden emblem on the right leg of the shorts: a turtle representing endurance and unity, its circular shell and arrow motifs pointing toward Oklahoma City and the four sacred directions. Sunset-toned sashes wrap across the shoulders and down the sides of the shorts, paying tribute to tribal resilience and shared identity. Meanwhile, the eleven geometric stars along the sides of the jersey and shorts carry forward stories passed through generations, weaving heritage directly into the fabric of the design.
Fans will get a chance to experience the uniform beyond the court thanks to a special showcase at the First Americans Museum. From August 21 through September 5, the museum will host a limited-time exhibit displaying the full uniform while offering fans the chance to win Thunder City Edition gear. Beginning September 6, the uniform will shift into a digital exhibit that runs through November in celebration of Native American Heritage Month.
The Thunder are also expanding the City Edition platform this season with an alternate City Edition court and designated City Nights theme games. Each Friday home game, starting December 5, will highlight the new look as the team takes the floor in the City Edition uniform on the specially designed court.
With its blend of history, symbolism, and community pride, the Thunder’s 2025-26 City Edition uniform isn’t just another alternate. It is a statement piece that honors the Indigenous heritage at the heart of Oklahoma and unites fans around the stories and traditions that continue to shape both the city and the legacy of Thunder Basketball.
There’s never a wrong time for the Chicago Bulls to dip into the Michael Jordan era, and they just did it again, big time.
The Bulls officially revealed their 2025-26 Statement Edition uniforms, a black-and-red pinstriped look that instantly calls back to their legendary dominance in the '90s. First introduced during the 1995-96 season, a year the Bulls went 72-10 and won it all, this iconic uniform design hasn’t hit the court since the 2012-13 season. Now, it’s back and reimagined for a new generation.
Chicago turned to a fitting face for the reveal: Dennis Rodman, who rocked the pinstripes alongside MJ during back-to-back championship runs. In a hype video with current Bulls Coby White and rookie Matas Buzelis, Rodman got his hands on the new look and summed it up perfectly:
“These are nice. I remember when we first introduced this. It was legendary, man. These jerseys right here are legendary. It's not even a throwback — it’s brand-new for the new generation. This is gonna be really cool for Chicago … this brings back memories.”
The return of the pinstripes isn’t just a visual win, it’s a statement of legacy. From Jordan’s mid-air moments to the grit of the '96 squad, this design is soaked in Bulls history. It’s also a continuation of the black-and-red pinstripe takeover in Chicago sports, the White Sox unveiled a similar City Connect look earlier this year.
The Atlanta Hawks are running it back with a fan favorite. For the 2024-25 NBA season, the Hawks are bringing back their iconic “Peachtree” City Edition uniforms, a bold, black-based look that reps one of Atlanta’s most legendary streets and the soul of the city itself.
Originally introduced as a tribute to Peachtree Street, the heart of ATL, this year’s version builds on the legacy. The uniform features a clean black base with sleek peach and white accents. "Peachtree" is front and center across the chest in crisp white lettering with a peach outline, and the look is tied together with peach and white trim along the collar, arms, and down the sides.
This isn’t just a jersey. It’s a statement. It’s Atlanta culture stitched into every thread — from the colorway to the name to the vibe it brings on and off the court.
The new Peachtree set is an evolution of the original, blending fresh design updates with a deep connection to the city’s roots. It’s a visual reminder of the Hawks’ bond with the ATL community — and a uniform that continues to stand out as one of the NBA’s best City Editions.
The Milwaukee Bucks are bringing back their beloved "Cream City" uniforms for the 2025-26 NBA season, marking the first time the look will hit the court since 2019-20.
Inspired by Milwaukee's iconic light-colored bricks, the cream-toned jerseys were previously shelved due to technical issues with on-court digital advertising. According to the team’s Chief Sales and Marketing Officer, those issues have been resolved—clearing the way for a long-awaited comeback.
The updated uniforms stay true to the original, featuring the signature cream base with green and blue striping and a script-style font. The shorts include a stylized “M” and a nod to the state of Wisconsin on the buckle. To complete the look, the Bucks will also debut a custom court designed to match the Cream City aesthetic.
the Utah Jazz introduced "Mountain Basketball," a brand philosophy that has shaped Jazz culture since 1979. This new direction reflects Utah's unique spirit by combining a passion for basketball, a dynamic and growing community, and the influence of the state’s mountainous landscape on daily life. Alongside this announcement, the Jazz unveiled their primary uniforms for the next two seasons, showcasing a prominent use of purple and mountain symbolism. New colors in the expanded palette include Mountain Purple, Midnight Black, and Sky Blue.
"Our branding will always be an iterative process as we, our fanbase, and the game of basketball continue to grow," said Ryan Smith, governor of the Utah Jazz. "It’s clear that Mountain Basketball and purple are at the soul of Utah and the Jazz, and we’re excited to share with our community what they have to look forward to."
For the 2024-25 season, the Jazz will sport four uniforms—two new designs and two existing ones. The current white Association Edition jersey will be worn throughout the season. The existing black Statement Edition jersey will be replaced by a new black design in January 2025, featuring the Mountain Basketball color palette. The 2024 City Edition will introduce a refreshed purple mountain design.
In the 2025-26 season, the Jazz will debut a new primary white Association Edition and a purple Icon Edition uniform, along with the black Statement Edition from January 2025. These uniforms lean into classic mountain imagery, and three designs prominently feature the bold UTAH logo on the chest. The iconic Jazz Note remains central across all uniforms, apparel, and team imagery, with #TakeNote continuing as the rallying cry.
Stay tuned for more updates as the Utah Jazz continue to celebrate Mountain Basketball and their 10th anniversary season.

The Portland Trail Blazers are keeping it classic, with a modern twist. Ahead of the 2025-26 NBA season, the Blazers have dropped their updated Association and Icon Edition uniforms, offering fans a subtle yet meaningful evolution of the team’s timeless look.
While the design honors tradition, it’s anything but outdated. The iconic diagonal sash remains front and center—still bold, still unmistakable—but now reimagined in a clean two-tone format. “Rip City” branding takes its rightful place on the beltline, a tribute to the fans who fill the Moda Center night after night. And that unmistakable pinwheel? Still holding it down on the shorts, keeping the energy high.
Gone are the silver accents and intricate trims. In their place: a streamlined, confident look built around the core colors that have defined the franchise since 1970—Black, University Red, and White.
This is more than a uniform update. It’s a celebration of the past, present, and future. Whether it’s Shaedon Sharpe and Toumani Camara lighting up the court, die-hard fans rocking the look in the stands, or weekend warriors repping Rip City at the local gym—these kits are built to stand out.
