The NBA's In-Season Tournament, branded as the NBA Cup, is returning with new court designs featuring a simpler look compared to last year. Each court will showcase three circles symbolizing the tournament stages and include artistic elements unique to each team for local fan engagement. Teams will wear special Statement Edition uniforms for these games, further distinguishing them from regular season matches. The tournament begins on November 12, with the final scheduled for December 17 in Las Vegas. The Los Angeles Lakers, last year's champions, have unveiled their court design highlighting their 2023 trophy and past NBA Finals victories. This initiative aims to generate excitement and distinguish the NBA Cup from the regular season through bold aesthetics and thematic continuity.
