How to Get Involved

On October 21, fans can participate by sharing photos of themselves wearing their favorite NBA jerseys using #NBAJerseyDay and #KiaTipOff24 on social media. Be sure to tag your favorite teams and players for a chance to be featured on the league and team social media channels! It’s a great way to show your team pride and connect with fellow basketball fans worldwide. So which jersey are you going to choose?

Fans have four weeks to decide which jersey to choose from; whether it’s from their existing collection, or they add a new jersey to the rotation for the upcoming season. 

Maybe your favorite college or international player is entering his rookie season and you want to support Atlanta’s Zaccharie Risacher, Portland’s Donovan Clingan or Utah’s Zach Edey. 

Or perhaps you plan to show love to the OGs of the NBA, such as Michael Jordan’s No. 23, Kobe Bryant’s No. 24 or No. 8, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s No. 33 or Magic Johnson’s No. 32.
