ThunderSuns Quarterfinal Set as Oklahoma City Chases 24-1 Start and Vegas Berth

Players on advancing teams are vying for escalating NBA Cup bonuses that reach $530,933 per standard-contract player for the champion.

Overview

  • Phoenix visits Oklahoma City on Wednesday, Dec. 10 at 7:30 p.m. ET, with the winner advancing to the Las Vegas semifinals on Dec. 13 and the final on Dec. 16.
  • Oklahoma City enters 23-1 and previously edged Phoenix 123-119 in group play; a win would move the Thunder to 24-1 and match the best 25-game start in NBA history.
  • Phoenix reached the knockout stage as the Western wild card at 3-1, seeking its first semifinal appearance in the tournament’s three-year history.
  • All remaining Cup games stream on Amazon Prime, with some local TV for quarterfinals and ESPN Radio carrying the two semifinals and the title game from Las Vegas.
  • One local outlet reports the Suns are likely without Devin Booker and certainly without Jalen Green due to soft-tissue injuries, a status not broadly confirmed.
