Last month, it was announced the Charlotte Hornets would be the only team in the NBA to have jerseys licensed with the Jumpman logo, which is probably a result of Michael Jordan’s ownership of the team, though there’s been no official statement. And now, the jerseys have been officially revealed:
Charlotte Hornets reveal their new Jumpman uniforms
Jumpman, Jumpman, Jumpman, Jumpman, Jumpman, Jumpman
If you don’t want to sit through a full minute of an overblown, HBO-style dramatic video just to see some new uniforms, here they are:
Pretty dope!
The uniforms are the only ones in the league to sport the Jumpman logo instead of the standard Nike swoosh. It’s the first time one team has had a different uniform license than the rest of the league, which is a weird anomaly in the world of highly structured licensing deals. Sure, Nike and the Jordan brand are under the same umbrella, but it’s still interesting to see these unique uniforms.
The jerseys aren’t all that different from last season’s Adidas uniforms:

But the Jumpman logo is definitely a neat addition to some already-clean looking uniforms.
