Starting on November 3rd of the 2023-2024 regular season, the NBA will embark on the league’s first in-season tournament that concludes on December 9th with a championship game in Las Vegas.
The six pools of teams have been divided by conference and last year’s standings with the Celtics entering a round robin with the Brooklyn Nets, Chicago Bulls, Orlando Magic, and Toronto Raptors. The teams will play a total of four games (two at home, two on the road) with the best team in each group plus two wildcard teams heading into a single elimination tournament.
