The WNBA's Commissioner's Cup, presented by Coinbase, will return with a new format featuring a concentrated structure for the in-season tournament. The tournament will include 12 teams competing for the trophy over a two-week window, with a particular focus on the Eastern and Western Conference Commissioner’s Cup play. The journey to the Cup begins on June 1st, culminating in the Championship game on June 25th. The new format aims to generate excitement and urgency, with a spotlight on the Western and Eastern Conference schedules. The upcoming NBA TV deal is also highlighted as massively important, with the league selling the NBA In-Season Tournament package to networks and streamers as a multi-million dollar piece of the pie.
The upcoming NBA TV deal is massively important to the league and team owners. One package the league is selling to networks and streamers is the NBA In-Season Tournament. Pushing it and making it "a thing" isn't just a pet project; it a multi-million dollar piece of the pie.
