Heat Vice City Jersey Puts Six Pink Stars at the Hem

The Heat, Rockstar Games and Travis Scott's Cactus Jack revealed Nike made Vice City uniforms on November 6, 2026 for a November 18 home game against the Bucks. The black Swingman jersey has pink and white trim and six pink stars near the hem, and the on court version is quieter.





Key Points
- Debuts November 18 against the Bucks, a day before GTA VI launches
- Retail Swingman is black with pink trim and six pink stars
- The on court version carries the game map and a Robinhood patch, per TMZ
The Miami Heat Vice City jersey is black with pink and white trim, and it has six pink stars near the hem. The Heat, Rockstar Games and Travis Scott's Cactus Jack revealed it on November 6, 2026, built with Nike for "A Night in Vice City," the home game against the Milwaukee Bucks on November 18 at Kaseya Center. Grand Theft Auto VI launches the next day, November 19.
Two versions exist, and the difference between them is the most useful thing in the reveal. One is the retail Swingman jersey sold to fans. The other is the on court uniform the players wear, and per TMZ it is the quieter of the two.
"Vice City" Takes the Chest Where the Heat Logo Sits
The Swingman jersey replaces the Heat logo on the chest with the words "Vice City" and carries a palm filled "VI" patch. Six pink stars and Cactus Jack branding sit near the hem, and the jersey tag lists Rockstar, the Heat and Cactus Jack together, per TMZ and Hot New Hip Hop.
Scott's mark is on the Nike side of the build. A flipped Swoosh sits on the right chest, and the on court shorts carry an upside down Nike logo, per Hot New Hip Hop and SportsLogos.net. The shorts are black with pink and white accents, which matches the colors of Scott's upcoming GTA VI Air Force 1 Low.
Six Stars Match a Sneaker Rumor
Six pink stars is a specific number. The all black Air Force 1 Low reported for November 19 is described with a pink money band and six wanted stars. The jersey and the shoe point at one detail from two directions, a day apart in the release calendar.
That shoe has not been confirmed by any of the three brands, and the jersey has. Treat the star count as a shared design cue and the sneaker as a report.
The Court Version Carries the Compliance Bill
NBA uniform rules prohibit overt video game references on the court, per TMZ, so the on court version is built differently. The Heat wordmark carries the game's map, and a Robinhood advertising patch takes the place of the "VI" patch. That is the version the Bucks will see on November 18.
The result is two products with one name. The retail jersey is the full Vice City piece and the on court uniform is the league approved one. Fans buying a Swingman are buying the more honest version of the collaboration. Swingman jerseys and shorts go on sale on November 18, in limited quantities, per Complex.
A Night Built Around One Release
Rockstar designed a one off uniform for the night, and the Heat is also building a Vice City court at Kaseya Center, decorated with Vice City logos and imagery. Local 10 carries the game locally and ESPN nationally, in partnership with Rockstar. The national ESPN window lands on the eve of launch, which gives Rockstar a live audience of basketball viewers one night before the game goes on sale. For the Heat, it is a home game against the Bucks with a different court, a different jersey and a different set of merchandise. The Vice City Collection, Rockstar's first official merchandise, is open for pre order on the Heat's website: T shirts, hoodies, crewnecks, cropped tops and New Era hats.
Rockstar has been stacking tie ins around the November 19 launch. Travis Scott's RHYNO opens the game's 34 track album, which releases on launch day, and Rockstar revealed six radio stations on October 8, with Bad Bunny, Morgan Wallen and Burna Boy among the names. A basketball game puts the brand on a floor in front of a live crowd.
What the Night Tests
Scott already has a place in this franchise through the album, and the Heat now gives him a place on an NBA floor. The test for the Heat is how a uniform covered in another company's mythology sells to a fan base that wears the team's own logo. The test for Rockstar is how many people who watch on ESPN on November 18 are not already planning to buy the game.
The jersey is the product to watch. It is limited, it goes on sale the night of the game, and its six stars match a sneaker that nobody has confirmed yet. If the sneaker shows up on November 19 with those stars, the Heat will have shipped a uniform that previewed it.
