The jerseys of the 2024-25 Kia NBA Most Valuable Player, Kia Rookie of the Year, and Kia Defensive Player of the Year will feature a gold logo patch on the back. So that means this program will see Shai-Gilgeous Alexander, Evan Mobley, and Stephon Castle as the only three NBA players to wear the "Gold Logoman" on the back of their jerseys this season.

These patches, like the 1-of-1 rookie card from Cooper Flagg, will later be inserted into Topps trading cards.

  1. They should do something like this for the winning all star team too. Maybe that’s a small incentive for them to try

  2. I had this idea once. Where NBA players get patches on their jersey representative of accolades. Would look like a military uniform maybe. The best players/legends would look drastically different.

    So like an all star is a gold star but then 5 all stars is a different symbol, 10 is another symbol, etc so you save space
    Then DPOY gets a symbol
    MVP gets a symbol
    ROY gets a symbol.
    Champion gets a symbol

    I think it would look sick.
