What is at stake in today's NBA In-Season Tournament games?
With only the final four teams for this NBA In-Season Tournament in Las Vegas, the winners of the games today will get one step closer to becoming the first-ever NBA Cup champions.
The initiative of league commissioner Adam Silver to have this In-Season Tournament was the subject of critics, who wondered if the games would be taken seriously. So far, it has brought out highly competitive basketball at the start of the season.
Four-time champion LeBron James is one of those players looking to take home the NBA Cup and will want his team to etch their names as the first-ever champions of this new concept.
"The in-season tournament is what it is, and we have an opportunity to play on a big stage, be on national television, represent our families, our communities, where we come from," said James.
The excitement of playoff-style basketball in the last quarter of the year had been a success, with fans eager to see how the tournament will end on December 9.
