He NBA Cup 2024 is underway, as the league continues the second year of its seasonal tournament. He NBA Cup schedule will continue on Friday with 10 games, and the eight-team knockout phase will be decided at the end of play next Tuesday (December 3). The Warriors and Rockets have become the first two teams to book their tickets to the eight-team knockout stage, and both clinched their groups by starting 3-0 in the competition.
He NBA Cup Courts will look different in 2024, but the event is largely the same format like 2023, its inaugural year. even if that format might need some tweaking.
For those who need a reminder, here’s a quick summary of how the tournament works:
- The 30 NBA teams have been divided into six groups of five teams: three groups in the Eastern Conference and three groups in the Western Conference.
- Teams will play the other four teams in their group in a round-robin style on Tuesdays and Fridays between November 12 and December 3.
- Eight teams (the six group winners plus one wild card team from each conference) will advance to the knockout round. Ranking will be determined by overall record, head-to-head record, and point difference if a tiebreaker is needed (there are even more tiebreakers if necessary).
- The elimination round will be single elimination. The four East teams will be on one side of the draw, the four West teams will be on the other. The final between the East and West winners will take place on December 17 in Las Vegas.
