Everyone needs an Uncle Phil. Whether you’re the Fresh Prince or Ja Morant, having a steady force in your corner is key. Morant’s Phil wasn’t a judge and he didn’t take him in after a playground fight in Philly, but he has joined the Memphis point guard on plenty of fishing trips and bonding experiences, so for Morant’s latest Nike Ja 3 colorway, it was only right to honor his unc.

The Nike Ja 3 Uncle Phil popped up last fall, but now, a set of official images gives us a closer look at the colorway inspired by deep-sea fishing trips and family camaraderie. Featuring a mix of blue shades and neon green, the pair is dedicated to Ja’s biggest supporter since day 1.

A metallic blue shade covers the entire upper like a sheet of armor, while an icy light blue tone is added to the midsole in front of a bright yellow base. Red hits are added to the JA tongue logo and Swoosh branding that pop next to the neon yellow laces.

The Nike Ja 3 Uncle Phil will be released Summer 2026 through Nike and select retailers in-store and online. Available in men’s sizing, the retail price is set at $135. For all the latest Nike Ja Morant news and drop info, download the Sole Retriever App.
