The NBA Cup is set to continue with a nine-game slate on Saturday, Nov. 22, and here are the four NBA Cup games that you should tune in for.
New Orleans Pelicans vs Dallas Mavericks
Before you click off the article for us putting the Western Conference’s cellar dwellers in this list, hear us out. The Dallas Mavericks have Cooper Flagg, and he’s starting to find his own groove. Additionally, they have a bone to pick with the Pelicans after losing to them by 2 points last November 5. We don’t know about you, but that sounds like the perfect recipe for a heated NBA Cup matchup.
Miami Heat vs Chicago Bulls
To be honest, little else needs to be said about this matchup, as most NBA fans would remember that these two teams have been in each other’s way for a long time. In the last three years, Miami has crushed Chicago’s dreams of a postseason appearance by ousting them in the play-in tournament. With both teams seemingly poised to meet again in the same scenario for the fourth consecutive year, this NBA Cup matchup is one you don’t want to miss.
Phoenix Suns vs Minnesota Timberwolves
This one is an absolute banger of a matchup as the NBA’s top two shooting guards, Devin Booker and Anthony Edwards, look to lead their teams to a victory and secure their spots in the knockout rounds. Book and Ant-Man have a history that dates back to the 2024 playoffs, where Minnesota swept Phoenix with ease, which led to the iconic taunt by Edwards. Because of their alpha dog mentalities, expect 48 minutes of nothing but fireworks.

Houston Rockets vs Denver Nuggets
The Houston Rockets made waves this offseason with their splashy signing of Kevin Durant, and fans wonder whether it will be enough to make a significant postseason run. Their biggest test thus far sees them visiting Nikola Jokic and the Nuggets at Ball Arena with the top spot in West Group C up for grabs. It is KD versus the Joker. Need we say anything more?
