The NBA Cup action continues with a full slate of quarterfinal games this week.

The Toronto Raptors will host the New York Knicks in the second game of a doubleheader on Tuesday, Dec. 9. The Miami Heat travel to take on in-state rival Orlando Magic.

The Oklahoma City Thunder, the defending NBA champions, will take on the Phoenix Suns in the first game of Wednesday’s doubleheader. That game will be followed by the San Antonio Spurs’ road game against the Los Angeles Lakers.

The winner of those games will move on to the tournament’s semifinal.

LeBron James and the Lakers won the first NBA Cup in 2023. The Milwaukee Bucks won the tournament in 2024.

The in-season tournament team won a trophy, and each player on that team will share a portion of the $500,000 prize.

Here’s everything to know heading into the knockout rounds, including matchups and schedule for the quarterfinals and the final standings after group play:
