The NBA updated its LockerVision website Sunday with details on the specific uniforms to be worn by each team in confirmed playoff games.

All playoff games will be played inside the league’s Disney World “bubble” complex in Central Florida. Four of the eight series will begin Monday, while the remaining four — including West No. 4 Houston versus No. 5 Oklahoma City — will start on Tuesday.

Per Locker Vision, the Rockets will wear their black Nike Statement jerseys, which have “Houston” across the front, in Tuesday’s Game 1 and also for Game 4 on Monday, Aug. 24.

Houston’s red Icon uniforms, which feature the team’s usual red color scheme along with its latest logo and a revised font, will be the choice for Thursday’s Game 2. Finally, the space-inspired City uniforms — white with “H-Town” across the front — will be worn in Saturday’s Game 3. That keeps with Houston’s “Space City Saturdays” theme from this season.

The Rockets are not scheduled to wear their white Association jerseys, which are similar in design (but not color) to the red Icon set. They are also not scheduled to wear their red Classic jerseys, which they went 0-2 while wearing in recent “seeding” games at the bubble.

The Thunder will wear their orange Statement jerseys with “OKC” across the front in Game 1 and Game 3, while they will don white Association jerseys with “Thunder” across the front for Game 2 and Game 4.

Uniform sets for future playoff games and series will not be released until those game dates and matchups are confirmed.

NBA releases uniform schedule for Rockets upon league’s restart

The NBA has released the uniform schedule that each of its teams will wear during the upcoming regular-season games in Florida.

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.
