In a spectacular build-up to the 2024-25 NBA season, media members, content creators, and some players of Gilas Pilipinas Women gathered at the Titan Court in Gameville Ball Park, Mandaluyong City, last October 17, 2024 for a special 5-on-5 basketball event. The occasion, which was part of the global celebration for NBA Jersey Day 2024, featured participants sporting their favorite NBA jerseys, showing off their love for the game and their teams.
The atmosphere at Titan Court was electric as influencers, journalists, and vloggers laced up their sneakers and hit the hardwood, donning jerseys from some of the NBA’s biggest and brightest stars today. The action-packed game saw these personalities bring a mix of fun and friendly competition as they showcased their basketball skills in a casual yet exciting setting. Fans, influencers, and celebrities worldwide were encouraged to rep their favorite NBA jerseys and share photos on social media with the hashtags #NBAJerseyDay and #KiaTipOff24. This year's celebration, held on the eve of the highly anticipated Kia NBA Tip-Off 2024, aims to generate excitement ahead of the new season which officially started last October 22, 2024 (US time). The local event at Titan Court not only offered a sneak peek of the larger global movement but also gave Filipino fans and content creators a unique platform to express their passion for the NBA.
“Our annual NBA Jersey Day tradition encourages fans around the world to celebrate their favorite teams and players by wearing their NBA jerseys from any era, which are seen as versatile fashion pieces worn on and off the court in the Philippines. As part of this year’s NBA Jersey Day, we’re thrilled to bring together our content creators and media within the local basketball community and have them participate in a series of exhibition games wearing official jerseys from the NBA Store as we celebrate the beginning of another exciting NBA season," said NBA Philippines Senior Manager for Merchandising Partnerships Patrick Giron. Also part of the broader festivities, NBA Store Philippines has rolled out massive promotions including discounts of up to 70% on selected NBA jerseys both online and in physical stores. Fans, on the other hand, were given a chance to take part in the festivities by participating in a social media contest by posting photos in their official NBA or WNBA jerseys on Instagram with the hashtag #NBAStorePHJerseyDay for a chance to win additional discounts on future purchases.
With the 2024-25 NBA season now underway, NBA Jersey Day 2024 has set the tone for what promises to be another thrilling year of basketball. From local courts to social media, fans everywhere are gearing up to celebrate their favorite teams and players in style.
