Ja Morant Jersey: Icon, Statement & Swingman
Ja MorantUnranked out of high school, second pick two years later
Ja Morant was not ranked by the recruiting services coming out of high school. Three years later he was the second overall pick. His jersey is a record of the steepest rise in modern basketball.
#12The short version
Who he is, and why his jersey is worth having.
Morant was lightly recruited out of high school in Sumter, South Carolina, and unranked by the recruiting services despite three all-region MVP awards. He went to Murray State, made first-team all-conference as a freshman, and then had a sophomore season in which he was named conference Player of the Year and led the entire NCAA in assists.
He was the second overall pick in 2019 and won Rookie of the Year. The appeal of the jersey is partly the player and partly the story: the rankings missed him, and everybody who watched him in college knew that was a mistake.

The story so far
The short version of a long career — enough to know which jersey you are actually looking for.
That story is why his jerseys have a following beyond the club he plays for. He is a case study in the limits of scouting, and the early-career jerseys in particular get bought by people who followed the college run rather than the professional one.
The colourway helps too — his design sits in a palette that works as casual wear, which is not something every player's jersey manages.
The bare facts: born in Dalzell, South Carolina, U.S., drafted in 2019, taken 2 overall in round 1 by the Memphis Grizzlies and listed at 6'2", 174 lb.
This is a career that moved. We carry his name across Memphis Grizzlies and Portland Trail Blazers, so you can pick the chapter you actually remember rather than whatever is current.
The number on the back is #12.
The colourways, explained
Under this name you will find Icon Edition, City Edition, Statement Edition and Association Edition. Worth knowing what each one is before you decide.
Icon The primary colourway
The one you picture when you close your eyes. Icon takes the club's primary colour as its base and dresses the whole jersey in it, which is why it reads loudest from the top of the upper deck. If you only ever own one, this is usually the one.
City Redesigned every year
The one that changes annually. City jerseys dig into the city rather than the club — a neighbourhood, a moment in local history, a piece of street art — and they only ever run for a single season. That is exactly why they age well: the year on the label tells a story later. If you like your jerseys to mean something specific, start here.
Statement The alternate
The third look, and the one the design team gets to have fun with — darker bases, bolder trim, sometimes an entirely new colour introduced for a single season. Statement jerseys are where a club's graphics department says something.
Association Home white
White base, club colours doing the talking around the collar, the armholes and the numbers. Historically the home look — the jersey the team wears in its own building. It goes with everything, which is why it outsells its louder siblings among people who don't want to look like they're heading to a game.

The build matters as much as the colourway. Here is what actually separates them.
Swingman The standard fan build
The fan jersey most people mean. Light mesh, stitched or heat-pressed lettering and numbers, and a cut that sits properly on the body without being tight. It is the right answer for roughly nine out of ten people, and it holds up to actual wear rather than hanging in a wardrobe.
Replica Lighter on the wallet
A simpler build — printed detailing rather than heavier applied lettering, and a lighter hand overall. If you want the look at the lowest entry point, this is where you start. It is not trying to be the on-court jersey.
Custom Your name, your number
Blank or pick-your-own — a name and a number of your choosing. It is the answer when the exact player is not in stock, when it is a gift for someone whose favourite never got a jersey, or when you simply want your own name across the back.
Player Edition Closest to on-court
Built to the specification the players actually wear. Heavier fabric, deeper detail, and a fit that is intentionally athletic rather than relaxed. Pick this if you care about the details people only notice up close.
Sizes and who they are for
Jerseys are cut to layer over something else, which is why the tag size never quite matches a t-shirt.
Adult Standard sizes
The standard adult run. Jerseys are cut to be worn over a t-shirt, so the shoulder sits slightly wide by design — that is the silhouette, not a sizing error. If you want it fitted, size down; if you want the baggy look most people are after, stay true.
Women's Tapered cut
A narrower shoulder, a shorter body and a waist that actually tapers. Same design, drawn for a different frame rather than simply scaled down.
Youth For younger fans
Sized for kids and cut a little more forgivingly, because it is going to be worn hard. Worth checking the size guide against a favourite t-shirt rather than guessing from age.
Big & Tall Extra length
Added length and width for taller or broader frames. Same jersey, more room, without the shoulders drifting halfway down the arm.
