The NBA updated its LockerVision website on Monday with information on the specific uniforms that each team will wear in the eight regular-season games to be played at the NBA’s restart location in Florida.
The Houston Rockets will wear their red Icon jerseys upon the 2019-20 season’s resumption on July 31 versus Dallas. In all, the Icon uniforms — which feature Houston’s usual red color scheme along with the team’s latest logo and a revised font — will be worn by the Rockets in four of their eight games in Florida. That’s the most of any jersey set.
Besides the opener versus Dallas, the Icon uniforms will also be worn on Aug. 2 versus Milwaukee; Aug. 11 against San Antonio; and Aug. 14 versus Philadelphia in the regular-season finale.
After Icon, the team’s second-most frequent jersey will be the Classic set, which honors the 25-year anniversary of Hosuton’s most recent championship team in 1994-95. Those throwback-style red uniforms will be worn twice, on Aug. 4 versus Portland and Aug. 12 against Indiana.

For the other two games, the Rockets will wear their black Statement uniforms — which feature “Houston” across the front — on Aug. 6 versus the Los Angeles Lakers. They’ll use the space-inspired City uniforms, which are white with “H-Town” on the front, on Aug. 9 versus Sacramento.
The Rockets are not scheduled to wear their white Association jerseys, which are similar in design (but not color) to the red Icon set.
Houston has already clinched a spot in the upcoming NBA playoffs, but the uniform schedule for those games will not be set until dates and opponents are finalized upon the regular season’s conclusion.
