The NBA's inaugural in-season tournament has concluded with the Los Angeles Lakers beating the Indiana Pacers 123-109 to lift the NBA Cup, with the team's winning players receiving $500,000 each in prize money.

After all 30 teams were split into six groups and played four group stage games across November, eight qualified for the quarterfinals with four teams reaching the semifinals at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
