Michael Jordan is making sure to capitalize on Nike's takeover as the NBA's main jersey supplier.

While the rest of the league will switch to the iconic swoosh logo, the Charlotte Hornets will be the only team to wear Jordan Brand uniforms next season, the team announced Monday.

The news shouldn't come as a shock, since NBA commissioner Adam Silver said in 2016 that the Hornets would likely rep the Nike subsidiary in the 2017-18 campaign.

The jerseys will be available to the general public when the team reopens the Hornets Fan Shop later this year.
