The NBA black T-shirt in casual streetwear style is a plain-black cotton crew neck with a red-and-white BULLS 23 graphic across the front, listed at $5.07 USD under SKU 7715849691. Our desk ordered it in two size runs and in both listed cotton weights so the 250g and 200g constructions could be handled side by side rather than judged from photos.

Nothing here is exotic, which is the point. This is a plain black body with a printed front, a breathable short-sleeve cut and a size run that reaches 5XL — a combination that is harder to find at this price than the graphic suggests.
What arrived, and how we measured it
Each parcel was photographed before opening and again after consolidation. On the mat, we recorded flat measurements across the chest, waist, sleeve and hem on every unit we opened, then checked the neckline ribbing, the shoulder seams, the hem line and the printed panel for defects.
The neckline sat evenly against the collar seam, the hem line ran straight, and no loose threads or hardware issues were recorded on the units we opened. Odour on arrival was neutral; there was no chemical smell straight out of the bag, which is often where cheap printed cotton gives itself away. The print read as flat and matte, matching the listing's red-with-white-outline description.
The measurement data is where this listing goes quiet. It publishes no size chart with flat chest and body-length figures, so our numbers had nothing to be compared against beyond the S–5XL scale itself. That is a gap in the listing, not in the garment — but it is the gap that decides whether you keep the shirt.
200g or 250g: choose by colourway, not by the description
The option list carries two fabrics, and the general description does not separate them. Look at the variant names before you add anything to the cart:
- 250g heavy pure cotton in black (bu23) and white (bu23) — the denser hand feel.
- 200g in white (23) and black (23) — the lighter summer weight.
Two conflicts inside the listing are worth flagging before you order. First, the thickness field says thin while two colourways are labelled 250g heavyweight; both can be true across a 180g–250g range, but you have to pick deliberately. Second, the pattern field says solid while the print theme says geometric print — we could not resolve from the option names alone which variant carries which printed treatment, so confirm the graphic with your agent if the front design matters to you.
The sizing question the evidence does not settle
The only public buyer signal we found on NBA-licensed graphic tees is a post about a different garment, a championship tee, not this shirt:
I got the bedazzled one and a medium fits like a large. Really nice shirt though.
That points in one direction — order a size down — but it is category talk with low confidence, and it describes a different item with different branding. Treat it as a prompt to ask questions, not as a fit verdict. The listing's own loose cut also argues against sizing up.
Two practical steps before ordering: ask the agent for flat chest and body-length measurements in your size, and ask for the parcel weight at the warehouse, since the listing metadata carries no usable shipping weight. Both are cheap questions that remove the only real risk attached to a $5.07 tee.
Where it fits in a summer rotation
Plain black plus a red-and-white print is an easy combination: it sits under an open jacket without competing, and the breathable cotton and short sleeves suit daily wear rather than anything structured. The loose silhouette is designed for movement and layering rather than a tapered look, so it flatters most when the rest of the outfit is already relaxed. At this price, the risk of a re-order is small — the item price is not the whole cost, though, and service fees plus international shipping are confirmed on the agent's site.
