2024 NBA Cup Tracker: When, Who Do Knicks Play?
Several of the New York Knicks’ next few games will take on a playoff-like atmosphere.
The Knicks and their basketball brethren are set to partake in the NBA’s second annual in-season competition, which has since been rebranded as the Emirates NBA Cup. Group play gets underway on Tuesday night, Nov. 12, as the 30 teams have been separated into six groups of five, three in each conference.
New York will face some familiar competition in group play in Group A: the affair tips off with a showdown against the revamped Philadelphia 76ers, their victim in the opening round of last spring’s postseason. The Knicks will also get a chance to face their cross-borough rivals, the Brooklyn Nets, as well as a fellow recent postseason contender, the Orlando Magic. Also included are the Charlotte Hornets, who fell to the Knicks during group play of last season’s inaugural activities.
The Knicks were one of the most pleasant surprises of the first competition, as they earned a bid to the eight-team knockout round as the Eastern Conference’s wild card entrant. The Los Angeles Lakers, stationed in the West’s Group B, are looking to defend their title, having defeated the Indiana Pacers in the championship final in Las Vegas.
