NBA Cup groups

The NBA has announced the groups for the 2024 Emirates NBA Cup, with 30 teams divided into five-team groups based on last season's standings. The tournament will run from Nov. 12 to Dec. 17, featuring group play followed by knockout rounds. Last year's champions, the Los Angeles Lakers, will defend their title in a competitive field including strong groups like West Group C with Denver, Dallas, New Orleans, Golden State, and Memphis. The tournament aims to engage fans, drive interest, and offer cash prizes to players, with the championship set for T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. The NBA's innovative approach includes unique court designs and uniforms to distinguish these games from regular-season matchups.
