About the All-NBA Cup Team
The NBA began selecting an All-Tournament Team when the league introduced
the NBA In-Season Tournament in 2023. The competition was later renamed
the NBA Cup.
The team recognizes five of the top performers from each tournament.
Selections are based on a player's performance during Group Play and
the Knockout Rounds.
The tournament's Most Valuable Player is also identified below. Through
the first three NBA Cups, the MVP has been a member of the championship
team each season.
