Fans have been speculating on some of the new features that will be included in NBA 2K24, whose release is not that far off, and the game is almost ready for release.2K has already lifted the curtain on the changes that will be made to the gameplay, revealing all of the newly added features and reworked mechanics. On the other hand, there is a significant amount about NBA 2K24 that we are not yet aware of. A question that has been on the minds of a lot of fans recently is whether or not the redesigned NBA Cup will be featured in NBA 2K24.
Therefore, let's learn everything there is to know about it.

How does one win the NBA Cup?
First things first: before we get into discussing the NBA Cup in NBA 2K24, let's get a better understanding of the tournament itself. The new tournament that will be played during the regular season of the NBA is called the NBA CUP, and it has been in the works for quite some time. It gives NBA teams one more trophy to fight for, and it gives teams that aren't championship contenders a chance to win some silverware. This is especially beneficial to teams that aren't currently in contention for the championship.

The teams competing in the NBA Cup are broken up into six different groups of five teams each. The groups are decided by a random draw, with consideration given to the results of the regular season the year before.

Tournament games will be played every Tuesday and Friday from the 3rd to the 28th of November. The tournament begins on the 3rd. The games in question are played during the regular season of the NBA, but they are also counted toward the NBA Cup. The only game of the NBA Cup that doesn't count toward the standings during the regular season is the championship game.

The playoff stage will consist of the three group winners from each conference, in addition to one wildcard team from each conference. At that point, the teams will compete in best-of-one matches, with the higher seed's home court serving as the location for each game. It is important to note that in addition to the championship trophy, the NBA Cup will have an MVP trophy and an all-tournament team.

Does NBA 2K24 include the NBA Finals?
As was just brought up, the vast majority of the information pertaining to NBA 2K24 has not yet been made public. Before NBA 2K24 is finally released, there will be three more in-depth looks at the game. Therefore, in the not-too-distant future, we anticipate the developers will share some information regarding this feature. The fact that this tournament will be played for the very first time during the upcoming NBA season is something that should be taken into consideration. Since development on NBA 2K24 began in 2022 and the NBA did not make the NBA Cup official until just recently, it is highly unlikely that the feature will be included in this year's installment of the game.

Despite this, there is a possibility that the team of developers at 2K was able to incorporate the feature into this edition of the game. The team's attention has been focused on a variety of aspects, most notably the gameplay. However, the addition of a new game mode is one of the most effective ways to attract new players to the title. Therefore, there is still a glimmer of hope that the NBA Finals will be featured in NBA 2K24.

The Top 10 Overall Positions Are Confirmed for NBA 2K24 Ratings

The initial set of overall ratings for NBA 2K24 was shared by 2K Sports on Twitter earlier on August 9, which has caused a frenzy among the community. The game was released on August 9. Nikola Jokic of the Denver Nuggets has been given a tremendous boost as a result of his play during the previous season, and as a result, he has become the highest-rated superstar of the modern era. On the other hand, official statements have also been made regarding the overalls of some of the most famous superstars. This includes, amongst others, the names of LeBron James and Kevin Durant, both of whom have some astonishing ratings.

This article takes a closer look at the top 10 overalls in NBA 2K24 and identifies the players who have made it to the top:
Given how well he played in the NBA Finals the previous year, it shouldn't come as much of a surprise that Nikola Jokic has taken the top spot. Even though he didn't win most valuable player of the regular season for the third year in a row, he finally brought home a championship for his team. The 98 overall rating puts the Serbian international player at the top of the list.

98 points for Nikola Jokic96 points for Giannis Antetokounmpo96 on the Lebron James scale. Embiid Joel, number 9696 on Kevin Durant's jersey96 points for Stephen Curry95 points for Luka Doncic95 years old Jayson Tatum95 is Jimmy Butler's number.94 is for Devin Booker.

This is the complete list of all the ratings that have been confirmed so far, and it should be noted that both Damian Lillard and Kawhi Leonard have a total score of 94. Additionally, the rookie ratings for players such as Brandon Miller, for example, have been validated and are now available. On the other hand, Victor Wembanyama's final score has not yet been made public.

When looking at the ratings as a whole, almost all of them fall within the range of what was anticipated. A rating of 96 has been assigned to MVP Joel Embiid, which is the same as the number given to Lebron James. It's pretty incredible to think that at Lebron's age, he's managed to keep almost all of his skills intact.

In NBA 2K24, fellow European superstar Luka Doncic has received a rating of 95, and both Devin Booker and he have received a rating of 94. Given how effective Stephen Curry's jump shots have been in the NBA 2K series, it is safe to say that he will be a formidable opponent in NBA 2K96.
