The Washington Wizards announced that Robinhood, a financial services platform that pioneered commission-free stock trading, becomes the NBA franchise’s official brokerage and jersey patch partner. Robinhood’s logo will be prominently featured on Wizards home and away jerseys starting this season.

"We're thrilled to tip off the season alongside Robinhood, an innovative leader in financial investing as the Wizards jersey entitlement partner and official brokerage," said Jim Van Stone, President of Business Operations and Chief Commercial Officer at Monumental Sports & Entertainment (MSE). "The D.C. region draws incredible global diversity, and our fans are some of the most tech-savvy in the nation. As a company, Monumental Sports prioritizes being digital first in new fan experiences, pairing perfectly with Robinhood's mission to cultivate a mobile focused financial system accessible for all."

The Robinhood logo will appear on all Wizards jerseys on the upper left shoulder beginning with the Wizards vs. Indiana Pacers game in Indianapolis on October 25 through the 2025-26 season. The Wizards will debut the new jerseys to fans in D.C. at the home opener at Capital One Arena on October 28. 

“Robinhood is proud to join with the Wizards and show the D.C. region what our customers already know - Robinhood gives you the tools and confidence to invest in a way that’s right for you. Vlad and I both grew up in Virginia and we are excited to be back and become a mainstay of D.C. sports and to unite with a team dedicated to representing the vibrant and diverse region it plays for,” said Baiju Bhatt, Chief Creative Officer and Co-Founder of Robinhood Markets. “Basketball is my favorite sport and has been a lifelong passion – like it is for many of our customers – by becoming the official brokerage app of the Wizards, we'll show how Robinhood is making investing accessible and help Wizards fans build their wealth for the long term.”

Klutch Sports Group’s Property Sales division was hired to source and help facilitate the deal throughout the process.
