The 2026-27 NBA Cup group play schedule was announced Wednesday.
The OKC Thunder will compete in the Western Conference's Group B alongside the Los Angeles Clippers, Memphis Grizzlies, Minnesota Timberwolves and New Orleans Pelicans. It'll face each team once in November with hopes of reaching the knockout rounds.
OKC will begin group play with road games against Memphis on Nov. 6 and Los Angeles on Nov. 13. It'll then host New Orleans on Nov. 20 and Minnesota on Nov. 25.
The top team from each of the six groups and one wild-card team from each conference will advance to the knockout rounds, which have a single-elimination format. The quarterfinals (Dec. 4-5) and semifinals (Dec. 8-9) will be hosted by the higher-seeded team.
The championship game will then be played at Butler University's Hinkle Fieldhouse in Indianapolis on Dec. 11. It'll mark the first time the game hasn't been played in Las Vegas.
