Rep your team and Suga!

The NBA (National Basketball Association) has announced a new collection in collaboration with BTS‘s Suga and American sports clothing company Mitchell & Ness.

BTS’s Suga

Earlier this year, Suga was announced as the NBA’s new global ambassador. He has been a longtime fan of basketball, including watching the NBA. So, he was the perfect choice as he often shows his support to all the NBA teams.

Music and basketball have been shared passions of mine since my youth, and it’s a dream to be named an NBA Ambassador. I’m excited to formalize my relationship with the NBA, and I can’t wait to share some exciting collaborations I have planned with the league over the coming months.

Now, the NBA has revealed that it will release a SUGA x NBA capsule collection by Mitchell & Ness.

I’m so excited for the next phase of my relationship with the league with the launch of my very own NBA capsule collection. As a longtime fan of the NBA and its teams, this collection is incredibly special to me. I look forward to sharing this with all of you.

Suga helped design the upcoming merchandise collection that features six iconic NBA teams. They were chosen based on the U.S. locations the BTS rapper visited during his SUGA | Agust D TOUR ‘D-DAY’ WORLD TOUR.

The South Korean rapper, songwriter and producer provided extensive creative input on the apparel line, which features NBA team-branded t-shirts, hoodies, jackets, shorts and headwear across six NBA teams: the Brooklyn Nets, Chicago Bulls, Golden State Warriors, LA Clippers, Los Angeles Lakers and New York Knicks.

The collection includes T-shirts, jackets, hoodies, shorts, and headwear featuring branded NBA teams and the Agust D logo. Previously, the NBA stated it would be present throughout Suga’s world tour. This must be the collaboration they had been teasing!

Additionally, the NBA will have a presence throughout SUGA’s first solo world tour, collaborating around select concerts in celebration of the release of SUGA’s debut solo album, D-DAY. SUGA has featured basketball in several of BTS’ projects, most notably in the music video for the group’s global hit ‘Dynamite,’ which in 2020 earned the group their first appearance at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.

The selected teams are the Golden State Warriors, LA Clippers, Los Angeles Lakers, Brooklyn Nets, Chicago Bulls, and New York Knicks.

The teams were selected based on the U.S. cities where SUGA performed as part of his recent solo world tour SUGA | Agust D TOUR ‘D-DAY’. The new SUGA x NBA capsule collection by Mitchell & Ness is marked with SUGA’s Agust D moniker to signify his relationship with the NBA and also incorporates several design motifs inspired by his album D-DAY.
