Tristen Newton 2025-2026 Game Issued ‘Rising Stars’ Jersey | Probable Wear

This ‘Rising Stars’ jersey was issued to Tristen Newton for the Castrol Rising Stars Game.

Tristen Newton was the 49th overall pick in the 2nd round of the 2024 NBA Draft out of UConn, where he won back‑to‑back national championships and earned Final Four Most Outstanding Player honors. After a brief stint with Indiana on a two‑way deal, he found his footing with the Iowa Wolves and later on a two‑way contract with the Houston Rockets, using his size, poise, and versatility to earn a larger role.

Standing out recently has been Newton’s all‑around impact and lead‑guard feel, showcased by his G League Winter Showcase selection and 40‑plus‑point outbursts as a scorer and facilitator. With his 6'5 frame, rebounding from the guard spot, and balanced scoring and playmaking package, Newton projects as a do‑it‑all combo guard who can stabilize an offense and impact winning in multiple ways.
