NBA reveals jerseys and playing surface for 2026 All-Star Game

NBA reveals jerseys and playing surface for 2026 All-Star Game 1

The NBA revealed the uniforms for the 75th All-Star Game on Tuesday, designed specifically for Los Angeles and the newly established U.S. vs. World format.

This represents the ninth consecutive year that Jordan Brand has crafted the uniforms for the All-Star Game, which is set to take place at the Intuit Dome in Inglewood, California, the home venue of the LA Clippers.

A Los Angeles-themed font displays “All-Stars” prominently across the chest of all three uniforms—two for Team U.S. and one for the World. The 2026 All-Star Game features two U.S. teams competing against one World team in a round-robin format, consisting of four 12-minute games. In recognition of Los Angeles’ seventh All-Star weekend, seven stars are featured around the “All-Stars” wordmark.

While each uniform boasts its own distinct design, they all incorporate three common elements: the flag representing a player’s nation positioned above the number on the back, a jock tag celebrating the 75th anniversary of the All-Star Game, and an NBA star graphic displayed on the front of the jersey and the side of the shorts.

Depending on the uniform, the graphic features a different background motif behind the NBA logo. The World team showcases a globe/compass design, whereas the red USA uniform includes stars, and the blue USA version features stripes.

The two U.S. jerseys present unique characteristics. The blue “stripes” variant features gold trim along with red and white stripes on the right side of both the jersey and shorts. The red “stars” design displays white stars along the right side of the uniform and shorts, complemented by a darker blue trim.

A blue and green panel extends along the side of Team World’s white jerseys, symbolizing “the vastness of land and sea across the globe,” as stated in the league’s news release.

The All-Star court was also unveiled on Tuesday, drawing inspiration from the Clippers and the Intuit Dome. The Clippers’ navy blue, red, and Pacific blue colors are present on the sidelines and baselines. The outer structure of the Intuit Dome features nautical stars and triangular patterns, which are similarly reflected in the various shades of wood stain used.

All-Star reserves were announced on Sunday, completing the team rosters with 12 players from each conference. Team A will compete against Team B in Game 1 of the round-robin tournament. The victorious team will then face Team C in the second game, while the losing team from Game 1 will take on Team C in the final game.

The top two teams based on record will progress to the championship game.

All-Star festivities are set to commence on Feb. 13, with the game scheduled for Feb. 15.
