The 2024 NBA Cup tournament is here, with teams vying to win the mid-season bragging rights and a spiffy trophy.
The league likes to have it feel different from the regular season, with teams wearing special jerseys (we ranked those jerseys from best to worst) and redesigned courts (we also ranked those court designs!), so it may make you wonder: do these games count for regular-season standings?
Here’s the answer: yes, the NBA Cup games do count for the regular season standings, with one exception! The championship game doesn’t count in terms of stats or a team’s record.
That’s it! Enjoy!
