The NBA will introduce the new In-Season Tournament next season, with the Golden State Warriors drawn in Western Conference Group C alongside the Sacramento Kings, Minnesota Timberwolves, Oklahoma City Thunder and San Antonio Spurs.
There’s plenty of question marks surrounding the validity of the new format, one that will see a round-robin group of games before the top teams of each group and two ‘wildcards’ advance to the knockout Quarter-Finals.
Will the Golden State Warriors be incentivized by the prize money of the NBA’s new In-Season Tournament?
The prize money will begin at the Quarter-Final stage where each player on a losing team will win $50,000.
