Nike Ja 3 “Uncle Phil” Honors Family Ties, Dropping Spring 2026

Throughout his young career, Ja Morant has made it clear that family sits at the heart of everything he does — both on and off the court. Continuing this theme, the Nike Ja 3 “Uncle Phil” pays tribute to one of the most important figures in his life, his uncle, who’s been there since day one.

The Nike Ja 3 “Uncle Phil” features a lively mix of colors that mirror the warmth, humor, and energy of family vacations — a nod to the lighthearted moments that shaped Ja’s upbringing. The upper comes dressed in a deep navy knit construction with vivid yellow threading woven throughout, complemented by bright yellow laces and a striking red Swoosh. Underfoot, a ZoomX midsole and translucent outsole provide comfort and bounce, ensuring Ja’s signature speed and agility translate from court to culture.

This edition continues Nike Basketball’s storytelling approach with Ja, using the Ja 3 as a canvas to celebrate the people who keep him grounded. Following the “Let Me Be Ja” colorway, the “Uncle Phil” adds a personal and playful tone to the series — one that blends emotion with high-performance innovation.

The Nike Ja 3 “Uncle Phil” releases in Spring 2026 via Nike.com and select retailers. Pricing details have yet to be confirmed.
