Presented is a Houston Rockets white home jersey worn or issued to Russell Westbrook during the 2019-20 NBA season, a historic year marked by the league’s response to social justice movements and the unprecedented NBA Bubble.
This Nike jersey is size 48 with added length and features the impactful social justice message "BLACK LIVES MATTER" above "WESTBROOK" on the back—part of the NBA’s league-wide initiative allowing players to wear messages addressing civil injustice. The jersey also includes a black memorial armband on the left shoulder, worn in remembrance of former NBA commissioner David Stern.
While official game wear is unconfirmed, the jersey displays attributes consistent with on-court use and is fully representative of this pivotal era in NBA history. Jerseys from the Bubble season—especially those with player-selected messages—are highly collectible and carry deep cultural and historical significance.
A powerful piece tied to both Russell Westbrook, one of the most dynamic players of his generation, and a transformational moment in professional sports.
