The 2026 NBA Cup’s fourth installment of the in-season tournament created by league commissioner Adam Silver could be the biggest one yet. A big change is likely coming to the competition as the NBA Cup’s time in Las Vegas could be coming to an end.

The NBA playoffs consist of 16 teams split evenly into two conferences, the Eastern and Western, from around the United States. These teams feature top basketball players from different states as well as international players.

In an appearance on the NBA on Prime Video pregame show, Silver mentioned the league was considering unique locations for the final game in future years. Amazon, who will broadcast the NBA Cup knockout rounds as part of its new media right deal, suggested looking at some storied college basketball arenas should the league decide to mix it up.

Adam Silver is thinking of moving the NBA Cup final to storied college arenas. Here’s a few from around the Big Ten.

The NBA Cup has now been narrowed down to two teams, with the New York Knicks and San Antonio Spurs set to meet in the championship game on Tuesday night in Las Vegas. The Knicks beat the Orlando Magic in the semifinals to reach the title game, while the Spurs ended the Oklahoma City Thunder's 16-game win streak to advance.
