Group play for this year\u2019s tournament will run through Nov. 28 and feature matchups every Friday. Eight teams will advance to the knockout round in an effort to advance to the semifinal round and then the championship game, both to be played in Las Vegas. Semifinal play will take place Dec. 13, and the final will be played Dec. 16.<\/p>\n
Now in its third season, the NBA Cup is always a topic of discussion because of the customized court designs for all 30 teams. The designs have garnered commentary ranging from high praise to extreme criticism, and this year\u2019s courts, designed by artist Victor Solomon, will have fans chatting.<\/p>\n
The Athletic\u2019s Jason Jones, Josh Robbins, Eric Koreen and Jay King have seen all 30 floors and compiled their own ranking, using a scoring system in which 30 points were given to their favorite court and one point was given to their least favorite. (This explains the numbers in parentheses next to each writer\u2019s name below.)<\/p>\n
Where did each court rank? Have a look below, as the rankings start from the bottom of the bunch to the cream of the crop. Feel free to offer your thoughts on the courts \u2014 and tell us about your favorites \u2014 in the comments section.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Robbins (8):<\/strong> I\u2019m all for innovation and progress, so I like that the league experiments with court designs. But I don\u2019t like when court designs (or football field designs) negatively impact the viewing experience for fans in the arena and those watching on TV. Many of my rankings will reflect that. Red and blue courts may look cool on paper, but I think they distract fans who watch the game. So, I dislike this court \u2014 and all the other red courts \u2014 because it takes the focus off the game itself.<\/p>\n Koreen (4):<\/strong> The court is too red. The logo is too garish. This is just too \u2026 much.<\/p>\n Jones (8):<\/strong> This reminds me of those old uniforms with the big bird across the jersey<\/a>. That\u2019s not a good thing. Those jerseys were terrible.<\/p>\n King (2):<\/strong> Too much red. Way too much red. Over the years, the red courts have all been the worst. This one fails to break that trend.<\/p>\n 29. Houston Rockets (25)<\/p>\n Robbins (11):<\/strong> The rocket trails are the one nice part about this court, and I applaud that because NASA\u2019s Johnson Space Center is in Houston.<\/p>\n Koreen (2):<\/strong> I assume this is what it looks like when you die and you\u2019re being sent, uhhh, you know, to the bad place.<\/p>\n King (5):<\/strong> Hell, Koreen. It\u2019s called hell. And I\u2019m staring at it.<\/p>\n Jones (7):<\/strong> Nice place mat.<\/p>\n 28. Toronto Raptors (34)<\/p>\n Jones (14):<\/strong> We didn\u2019t need \u201cWe the North\u201d so many times. We get it, you\u2019re in Canada. The phrase on the court that much is hard to keep track of. Every time I look, I think I see \u201cWe the North\u201d 10 more times.<\/p>\n Koreen (7):<\/strong> No! Bad Raptors! You do not need to have your catchphrase written that many times, in that many fonts, on your court. It is unnecessary. And to do it on a red court? This is far too maximalist for me. The maple leaf with the Raptor claw mark is the only reason this isn\u2019t lower on my list. I think that\u2019s one of the cooler things the Raptors have done with their primary logo recently.<\/p>\n Robbins (10):<\/strong> There are three major demerits here. First, the distracting red court (see the Atlanta commentary). Second, having so much writing on the court. Third, the horrendous grammar in \u201cWe the North.\u201d This is a trifecta of lameness. So, why did I rank it ahead of most of the other red courts? Well, it\u2019s a nice shade of red, and the maple leaf and the latitude marker are cool. Too bad they didn\u2019t go full steam on the latitude. Geography is good.<\/p>\n King (3):<\/strong> Did the designer of this court get in trouble? Was he or she forced to write \u201cWe the North\u201d over and over like a child in detention? Koreen is right about the maple leaf with the Raptor claw mark, though. That part rules.<\/p>\n 27. Oklahoma City Thunder (35)<\/p>\n Koreen (16):<\/strong> I know teams don\u2019t go for a redesign right after winning a title, but the Thunder\u2019s motif is so sleepy. As soon as I stop looking at it, I forget what it looks like. With that said, leaning on the dark blue as the primary color is the safest choice. Given their options, safe is fine.<\/p>\n King (16):<\/strong> Maybe the Thunder SHOULD go for a redesign right after winning a title. At the very least, they should increase the font size on the baselines. Looking at that made me want to visit the eye doctor.<\/p>\n Jones (2):<\/strong> The champs deserve better than a diamond-shaped basketball. I know OKC isn\u2019t exactly the sexiest city in the NBA, but that doesn\u2019t mean the court has to be boring.<\/p>\n Robbins (1):<\/strong> This court reminds me of the scene in the movie \u201cPitch Perfect\u201d in which an a cappella group sings with sock puppets over their hands. The Barden Bellas\u2019 leader, played by Anna Camp, watches and says, \u201cThere\u2019s no craft there.\u201d With this court, where is the craft? Where is the creativity? The court is ugly and boring, which is a lethal combination.<\/p>\n 26. Sacramento Kings (39)<\/p>\n Robbins (25):<\/strong> In this case, I suspect that the pattern on the court won\u2019t be as visible in real life as it is here. That\u2019s why I have this design as high in my rankings as I do. Without seeing the pattern, this is another dull court, and dullness would keep fans focused on the game itself.<\/p>\n Koreen (8):<\/strong> Is this a Magic Eye puzzle? If I stare at it long enough, will a plan for this franchise finally come into focus? (I\u2019m sorry. That was mean.)<\/p>\n Jones (5):<\/strong> Gray tiles on a kitchen floor. I get there\u2019s a crown on the floor, but the lines are sending me to the twilight zone.<\/p>\n King (1):<\/strong> Proud? Of what, reassembling the 2022 Chicago Bulls? Making the playoffs just once since 2006? Capturing magic under Mike Brown and then firing him less than two seasons later? The rest of the court isn\u2019t great, either.<\/p>\n 25. New Orleans Pelicans (40)<\/p>\n King (15):<\/strong> This court made me think of Billy Madison<\/a>. \u201cI drew the court blue because I\u2019ve never seen a blue court before and, to be honest with you, I wanted to see a blue court.\u201d<\/p>\n Jones (13):<\/strong> The bird looks scary. That\u2019s really all I\u2019ve got.<\/p>\n Koreen (9):<\/strong> I would like to see a fight between the pelican on this court and the hawk on Atlanta\u2019s. The Pelicans have never truly found a memorable look, but this is inoffensive.<\/p>\n Robbins (3):<\/strong> Stick with me, please, for a moment. I like Boise. I spent a very pleasant summer weekend there. I recommend it to travelers. But I blame the Boise State University athletic department for this NBA Cup alternative court madness. Boise State made it fashionable to have a weird-colored playing surface, and I think the school\u2019s \u201cSmurf Turf\u201d<\/a> detracts from the game. A football field shouldn\u2019t be blue, except, perhaps for the midfield logo and the end zones. A basketball court shouldn\u2019t be blue, either.<\/p>\n 24. Golden State Warriors (41)<\/p>\n Robbins (24):<\/strong> I like that this court makes me yawn. When NBA players play, the focus should be on what they\u2019re doing. The court should not be a distraction. This is so darn dull that it keeps the focus on where it belongs.<\/p>\n Koreen (3):<\/strong> You are the Golden State Warriors and your base color is \u2026 gray? And you\u2019re using an unrecognizable logo? The Bay Bridge is iconic.<\/p>\n King (13):<\/strong> Koreen might hate on it, but this logo is passable. A net that doubles as a W. Other than that, this court doesn\u2019t inspire me. It doesn\u2019t infuriate me, either, so at least there\u2019s that.<\/p>\n Jones (1):<\/strong> This is a big yawn. A big gray W. Black and gray. This is almost a tribute to the Raiders.<\/p>\n 23. Denver Nuggets (43)<\/p>\n Jones (16):<\/strong> I wish they used the Denver skyline, but I\u2019m being picky. I\u2019d make every alternate to a Nuggets jersey a throwback to the old-school look with the skyline and bright colors. I dig that more than \u201cElevation 5280.\u201d<\/p>\n Koreen (12):<\/strong> Does anybody know how high above sea level the city of Denver sits?<\/p>\n King (9):<\/strong> I don\u2019t love the shade of red used here, but this court is built for morons like me \u2026 literally. During the first year of the NBA Cup, I did not understand the significance of the number 5,280, which was featured on the court with no explanation. Now, the Nuggets are kind enough to explicitly state that they are referencing Denver\u2019s elevation. Salute to them for making it easy for the dummies like me.<\/p>\n Robbins (6):<\/strong> Another red court, another red failure. I must admit that I love how the Nuggets (and Colorado Avalanche, who play in the same building) attempt to psyche out their opponents by reminding them of the altitude. That \u201cElevation 5280\u201d reference is in other areas within Ball Arena, including the space where visiting teams\u2019 buses pull into the building.<\/p>\n 21. (tie) Miami Heat (44)<\/p>\n Robbins (28):<\/strong> I\u2019m taking a leap of faith here that in real life, the court will resemble a regular hardwood court closely enough that the fans watching inside the arena and on TV won\u2019t be distracted too much.<\/p>\n King (6):<\/strong> This is bland. It is gross. It has no character. I do not want to watch Jaime Jaquez Jr. play basketball on this court. And I am usually a Jaquez enjoyer.<\/p>\n Koreen (6):<\/strong> How can the same people that brought us the Miami Vice uniforms<\/a> also bring us the most boring of these courts? Is there some sort of cap on creativity output per decade?<\/p>\n Jones (4):<\/strong> Kudos for not using \u201cHeat Culture.\u201d Beyond that, this looks like a normal court.<\/p>\n 21. (tie) Dallas Mavericks (44)<\/p>\n Robbins (16):<\/strong> This is a nice shade of blue. I covered a game at American Airlines Center during this season\u2019s first week, and I have to admit, I don\u2019t care for the Mavericks\u2019 mascot, who reminds me too much of the Detroit Pistons\u2019 mascot, Hooper. No two mascots in any pro sports league should be similar to each other.<\/p>\n King (14):<\/strong> That shade of blue is not too rich, not too dull. It makes me think of a sunny day. Still, this court just feels like it\u2019s missing something. And I\u2019m not sure why, but the \u201cDallas\u201d written in between the letters of \u201cMavericks\u201d kind of creeps me out.<\/p>\n Jones (9):<\/strong> That\u2019s a really big horse on the court. That\u2019s really all I\u2019ve got. No MFFL reference? Years ago, I hoped that the acronym was something profane, only to learn it was \u201cMavs Fan For Life.\u201d That\u2019s about as blah as this court.<\/p>\n Koreen (5):<\/strong> This is not a hard rule, but in general, I think that most good logos can be drawn by school-aged children. Which is to say that I\u2019ve never liked this Mavericks logo, and it taking up nearly all of the court is a bummer for me. Also, we\u2019re nearly a quarter century into the Mavericks\u2019 color-scheme change, and I still think of this as a green franchise and not a blue franchise. I guess that\u2019s a me problem, but these are my rankings.<\/p>\n 19. (tie) Cleveland Cavaliers (45)<\/p>\n Koreen (26):<\/strong> Mmmm, merlot! (For real, nice work incorporating the logo.)<\/p>\n Jones (6):<\/strong> Are those nets on the court? Please, let me know.<\/p>\n Robbins (9):<\/strong> Yeah, now that you mentioned it, what are those? Anyway, this is too dark a red.<\/p>\n King (4):<\/strong> This is probably nitpicky, but why does this court have a period after \u201cLet Em Know\u201d? Given the strength of the message, wouldn\u2019t an exclamation point work better? Or better yet, since it\u2019s a basketball court, just no punctuation mark at all? The period makes me think \u201cLet Em Know\u201d should only be muttered like an elementary school teacher just yelled at you: \u201cInside voices, please!\u201d Why aren\u2019t the Cavaliers letting \u2019em know a little more forcefully?<\/p>\n 19. (tie) LA Clippers (45)<\/p>\n King (18):<\/strong> I spent most of my life somehow unaware that \u201cClippers\u201d had a nautical meaning. It wasn\u2019t until their logo shift that I put two and two together. As previously established, I\u2019m not the smartest guy. But I am smart enough to know that they need a better slogan than \u201cMake Waves.\u201d I can appreciate the color scheme, though.<\/p>\n Koreen (15):<\/strong> Give me that \u201cClippers\u201d font in script on the baselines all day. I don\u2019t love a logo that takes up the entire court. It is going to take a while for the whole sailing vibe to sink in as a Clippers motif after they avoided it for so long. \u201cMake Waves\u201d is just on the right side of corny, although I\u2019m a bit surprised they didn\u2019t opt for \u201cPlant Trees.\u201d<\/p>\n Jones (10):<\/strong> \u201cMake Waves\u201d \u2026 I get it. But the team plays in Inglewood, so that doesn\u2019t work for me. For some reason, the boat looks like a crosshair target on the court. It\u2019s not as creepy as the mascot, Chuck the Condor<\/a> (the bird in knee pads), but this is just OK.<\/p>\n Robbins (2):<\/strong> I like the slogan, \u201cMake Waves.\u201d But I dislike the court. Inuit Dome is the NBA\u2019s best, most inventive arena. The arena itself doesn\u2019t have feelings, but it deserves a better temporary court than this.<\/p>\n 18. Detroit Pistons (47)<\/p>\n Jones (15):<\/strong> This reminded me of the area code for Detroit. Even though Ludacris mentioned the 313 in his 2001 song \u201cArea Codes,\u201d that didn\u2019t stick in my mind like seeing 313 plastered on the floor. It\u2019s not the Bad Boys, but it\u2019s not the worst I\u2019ve seen.<\/p>\n Robbins (15):<\/strong> The only things that I like about this court are the fonts and the uses of the Pistons\u2019 primary colors at the bottom of the court. I don\u2019t hate anything here.<\/p>\n Koreen (10):<\/strong> The Pistons are right there with the Celtics and Lakers as franchises that should not mess around with their primary logo. Every time they go away from their main look, I\u2019m reminded of how good that main look is. Between that and the nod to Platinum Equity, Pistons majority owner Tom Gores\u2019 investment firm, this is the court that most consciously makes me think about the occasional pitfalls of capitalism.<\/p>\n King (7):<\/strong> I want to like this. The colors work together. At first glance I didn\u2019t hate it. The details just don\u2019t help. The fonts are distracting. There\u2019s nothing to call back the franchise\u2019s great history. I should see reminders of Isiah Thomas, Rick Mahorn and Ben Wallace. Instead, I see the name of an investment firm.<\/p>\n 17. Brooklyn Nets (54)<\/p>\n Robbins (26):<\/strong> The Nets sure do go crazy over their herringbone motif, don\u2019t they? The white squares at the bottom of the court remind me of the tiling within the New York subway system, and that\u2019s something nice to lean into. (The arena sits atop a subway stop.)<\/p>\n Koreen (13):<\/strong> The Nets\u2019 baseline logo remains one of the highlights of all of these courts, not just Brooklyn\u2019s. Unfortunately, it\u2019s the only thing I really love about this. Aren\u2019t endless chevrons kind of the Raptors\u2019 thing? Demerits for having to watch the Nets play basketball on this court.<\/p>\n Jones (3):<\/strong> The Nets would be better off with a tribute to The Notorious B.I.G. or something else that screams Brooklyn. I\u2019m not sure what this is.<\/p>\n King (12):<\/strong> Did something get stuck on the keyboard? Why does the sideline have so many dashes?<\/p>\n 15. (tie) Memphis Grizzlies (58)<\/p>\n Robbins (27):<\/strong> It took me a while to get on board with the \u201cMEM\u201d pattern here, but it works for me now. I like the color scheme. A negative is the exclusion of the grizzly in the logo.<\/p>\n Koreen (1):<\/strong> It\u2019s this simple: I hate the three-bar \u201cMEM\u201d thing, and it\u2019s all over the court and the trim. I\u2019m all for logo minimalism, but the effort here just reminds me of Jenga blocks. Too bad, because they have interesting colors with which to play. I cannot help the rage blackout I get from the bars.<\/p>\n King (19):<\/strong> The blue and gray soothes me. I would have preferred less of a reliance on the three-bar thing that irks Koreen to his soul, but I am a little happy that it irritates him so much. Shout-out to the Grizzlies for forcing him to rage blackout.<\/p>\n Jones (11):<\/strong> I\u2019ve seen this pattern before. It\u2019s the carpet of a media room I\u2019ve been in somewhere. Gray carpet is what the court looks like.<\/p>\n 15. (tie) Chicago Bulls (58)<\/p>\n Robbins (21):<\/strong> There\u2019s nothing special about this court. Nothing. Gray is dull, but in this exercise, dull is good, as it doesn\u2019t distract from the game itself. That\u2019s the redeeming quality of this court and the other gray courts.<\/p>\n Koreen (14):<\/strong> I get that all of the courts have to work in the City Edition jerseys, and in general, I love the stars on Chicago\u2019s flag. But the Bulls\u2019 primary logo is so good that it is disappointing not to see it featured. Also, I wish the stars were blue, as they are on the flag. This is fine, but drabber than it should be.<\/p>\n Jones (12):<\/strong> The stars from the city\u2019s flag don\u2019t work for me in this color scheme. And with the message \u201cSee Red\u201d on the court, I expect to see more red on the court.<\/p>\n King (11):<\/strong> The Bulls wrote \u201cSee Red\u201d on the bottom of this court, but they appear more interested in forcing the viewers to see gray and black. I\u2019m cool with that choice, though. The predominantly red courts hurt my eyes. This court should feature more nods to history, though. I should be thinking of Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen when I look at it. I\u2019m thinking of Coby White instead.<\/p>\n 14. Charlotte Hornets (59)<\/p>\n Koreen (21):<\/strong> It\u2019s not what I want in a court \u2014 which is why this isn\u2019t higher \u2014 but the teal honeycombs do fully encapsulate this franchise. De-emphasizing the teal would feel like a capitulation for the Hornets. They made the right call; it\u2019s just a lot to absorb through a television.<\/p>\n Jones (21):<\/strong> I really dig the hive look, and the color scheme is one of the best in the league. I just wonder what this will look like in person.<\/p>\n King (10):<\/strong> I would have preferred a \u201ccapitulation.\u201d Why do the Hornets use teal as a color, anyway? Teal has nothing to do with the insect itself. It looked cool on Starter jackets<\/a>. Not so much on an NBA court.<\/p>\n Robbins (7):<\/strong> I like teal \u2026 but only in moderation. Fans shouldn\u2019t be bombarded with it as the dominant color on their TV screens or within their fields of vision. It\u2019s too much \u2014 so much so that it distracts from the game.<\/p>\n 13. Minnesota Timberwolves (64)<\/p>\n Jones (25):<\/strong> The court looks relaxing. I suddenly want to take a nap. I like the trees, too. It would also fit as part of a company that promotes recycling.<\/p>\n Robbins (20):<\/strong> Mostly green courts are problematic, but at least this shade of green is light on the eyes.<\/p>\n Koreen (11):<\/strong> The trees evoke calmness and serenity. The shade of green evokes Radioactive Man<\/a>. The cognitive dissonance is off the charts.<\/p>\n King (8):<\/strong> No, no, no. This court looks like a package of Doublemint gum<\/a>. Which means I now have that jingle stuck in my head. You know the one<\/a>: \u201cDouble your pleasure, double your fun. That\u2019s the statement of the great mint in Doublemint gum.\u201d I\u2019m sorry for getting it stuck in your heads, too. I didn\u2019t choose this life.<\/p>\n 12. Boston Celtics (77)<\/p>\n King (27):<\/strong> This court scores points for the simple nods to history. The parquet floor. Red Auerbach\u2019s signature. Bill Russell\u2019s number. That\u2019s a lot of green, but the multiple shades of green here actually work for me. I haven\u2019t always appreciated the Celtics\u2019 NBA Cup court in the past, but this one hits the right notes.<\/p>\n Koreen (23):<\/strong> Congratulations to the Celtics, who went from using the Milwaukee Bucks\u2019 forest green a few years back to a more recognizable shade for the team. They\u2019re not trying much beyond that, but they\u2019re the Celtics \u2014 they should keep things minimal.<\/p>\n Jones (23):<\/strong> The simplicity works. It\u2019s old school with a new twist. Parquet floor, the No. 6 for Russell and the Auerbach signature are just enough history to annoy anyone who doesn\u2019t like the Celtics.<\/p>\n Robbins (4):<\/strong> I love the No. 6 honoring Russell. I like the callback to parquet. I even like the \u201cBoston Celtics\u201d font outside the baselines. But a basketball court should not be green.<\/p>\n 11. Philadelphia 76ers (79)<\/p>\n Koreen (27):<\/strong> There are too many fonts on this court, but that is my only real complaint. The logo is well used without being obnoxious. The colors complement one another. The baseline font is pleasing.<\/p>\n Jones (22):<\/strong> Going patriotic is predictable, and predictable is good here. \u201cBrotherly Love\u201d on the sideline and \u201cPhila\u201d at half court is even more love. It\u2019s a good look.<\/p>\n King (17):<\/strong> The fonts are too distracting. At least people will be able to watch Tyrese Maxey and V.J. Edgecombe on this court. What an exciting backcourt.<\/p>\n Robbins (13):<\/strong> I don\u2019t like blue courts. But I do like the stars because of their use in the United States\u2019 flag and because of Philadelphia\u2019s importance in early U.S. history. As for the \u201cBrotherly Love\u201d slogan here, it\u2019s apt; I\u2019ve been to all the NBA arenas, and the people who work inside and outside Xfinity Mobile Arena are always nice to me. That\u2019s not sarcasm.<\/p>\n 10. Milwaukee Bucks (80)<\/p>\n King (25):<\/strong> My family vacations in a place called Fripp Island, S.C. Deer roam around the island. They are the sweetest creatures \u2014 certainly nothing to fear. I suspect the Bucks are also nothing to fear this season. However, they did a great job with this court, a strange, longstanding motto aside.<\/p>\n Robbins (19):<\/strong> There are lots of reasons to fear deer \u2014 like when they run onto a busy road or carry ticks. These antlers reek of menace, and that makes up for the green court.<\/p>\n Jones (19):<\/strong> I know they\u2019re antlers, but the logos on the court look like the claws from some creature that are about to pick up the trophy.<\/p>\n Koreen (17):<\/strong> The Bucks\u2019 forest green is one of my favorite base colors in the league. However, putting the antlers where they\u2019ve put them, with the key in the middle, makes the logo look like a pair of owl eyes. Owls are cool, but they are notably not bucks or deer or anything.<\/p>\n 9. Utah Jazz (81)<\/p>\n Jones (24):<\/strong> Great color scheme, and the mountains are perfect. The purple Utah jerseys are one of the best I\u2019ve seen in the league from the 1990s, and this court brings back great memories \u2014 unless those memories include Game 6 of the 1998 NBA Finals<\/a> and you\u2019re a Jazz fan.<\/p>\n King (21):<\/strong> Any time I see those mountains, visions of John Stockton assists to Karl Malone dance through my brain. I can forgive the 50 shades of purple, then.<\/p>\n Robbins (18):<\/strong> The Wasatch Mountains ring part of Salt Lake City, so kudos to the Jazz for embracing the mountains in their logo. No court should be purple, but I like that the court designer here is taking a chance with a color that isn\u2019t used anywhere else during the NBA Cup.<\/p>\n Koreen (18):<\/strong> It always makes me sad when the Jazz go away from their music note logo. It is one of my favorites across the league, and to only see it on the baseline is disappointing. With that said, the purple, black and gold work in concert, evoking a frosty winter in the mountains.<\/p>\n 7. (tie) Washington Wizards (82)<\/p>\n Koreen (28):<\/strong> This is, by far, my favorite of the gigantic logos. There is something very pure about it. It makes me think of the playground. Going red is dangerous, but this one looks tolerable. Maybe it will look worse on a TV than on a computer screen. This is nice, with a lot of crisp elements.<\/p>\n Jones (29):<\/strong> I love nostalgia. The reference to the old Washington Bullets logo is a winner. That\u2019s really all I care about here. The logo isn\u2019t subtle, either. It\u2019s a great look for the Wizards.<\/p>\n King (20):<\/strong> Don\u2019t go red. Don\u2019t ever go red. But this could be worse.<\/p>\n Robbins (5):<\/strong> A basketball court should not be red, and this is the worst of the red NBA Cup basketball courts. I mean, it\u2019s not even a pleasant shade of red. Nor is it cherry blossom pink. I very much enjoy the callback to the old Bullets logo in which outstretched arms served as the Ls in \u201cBullets.\u201d Unfortunately, that\u2019s the only aspect of this that I like.<\/p>\n 7.
