NBA Jersey Day returns for the third time of the year on December 14th
In 1998, after being selected by the Milwaukee Bucks as the ninth pick in the NBA draft and traded to the Dallas Mavericks, Dirk Nowitzki held up his first-ever blue-and-white No. 41 jersey as his monumental career began. In 2022, fans around the world witnessed Nowitzki rise to the rafters of the American Airlines Center in Dallas after 21 seasons.

In previous seasons, teams have changed their signature colors, retired jersey numbers and introduced new uniform editions. But whether they’re rocking a vintage Magic Johnson jersey or the 2022-23 Nets City Edition jersey, fans can show off their signature style wherever they are.
But don’t worry if you don’t have your favorite jersey to hand. With teams across the league entering the 2022-23 season in new styles, there are plenty of options to get your hands on. Whether you represent the East or West Coast, new jerseys are available at NBAStore.com for everything from Suns guard Devin Brooker to Philly big man Joel Embiid. Or, if you’re more into legends, Hardwood Classics jerseys might be just the ticket, with the likes of Larry Bird, Allen Iverson and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (and many more) to choose from.
