The 203-24 NBA in-season tournament was nothing but a success, and warranted bringing it back for future seasons. Now, the league has done exactly that, only with a new, more permanent name — the NBA Cup. And with that rebranding comes the schedule and groups for the group play segment of the NBA Cup, which the league announced for the Boston Celtics and the rest of the Association on Tuesday (August 13) afternoon.
The Celtics find themselves in East Group C, which will feature the Cleveland Cavaliers, Chicago Bulls, Atlanta Hawks, and Washington Wizards. Given what we saw from Boston last season and their other peers in East Group C, the group will be the Celtics to lose.
The dates for group play action were also released. Let’s take a look at the schedule for Boston in the 2024-25 NBA Cup.
