The 2023-24 NBA season will be a different campaign than the traditional regular season we have grown accustomed to. In an effort to make the regular season more marketable, the NBA has decided to implement the inaugural In-Season Tournament.
The tournament will start on Friday, Nov. 3, and finish with the championship game on Saturday, Dec. 9. The semifinals and the final will take place in Las Vegas.
The tournament will consist of two stages: group play and the knockout rounds. 30 teams have been randomly separated into 6 groups of 5 teams. Each team will play the other four teams in their group.
