NBA In-Season Tournament Courts: Ranking the 5 Best

The NBA has officially unveiled the court designs that home teams will use during the first-ever In-Season Tournament, showcasing a stark departure from their usual regular courts.

These new designs feature vibrant colors that depart from the conventional wood-toned courts, incorporating team colors to produce a visually engaging effect, especially when seen on television.

Several of these designs have received positive feedback, and we are ready to provide you with the top five NBA In-Season Tournament courts.

5. Chicago Bulls

The Chicago Bulls' timeless color scheme of red, black, and white has become a classic in its own right, and the team has masterfully implemented this design on the floor of the United Center.

The colors also bode well with their black City Edition uniforms, creating a magnificent contrast every time they use the combination.

4. Cleveland Cavaliers

The Cavaliers' court design exudes an air of elegance, and they stand as the only team in the league that maintains the classic wooden brown color as the primary hue for their In-Season tournament court at the Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse.

The Cavs' classic wine red and gold color palette complements the court excellently, although the design may appear reminiscent of their City Edition courts.

3. Denver Nuggets

Despite criticism for the Nuggets' use of the "5280" wordmark, referring to Denver's altitude, the defending NBA champions have created one of the most appealing court designs for the In-Season Tournament.

The team has chosen the perfect hues from their team palette without unnecessary additions of extra colors, resulting in a clean and visually pleasing court at the Ball Arena.

2. Toronto Raptors

The court design of the Raptors radiates a luxurious feel with its incorporation of black and gold accents, drawing inspiration from Canadian rapper Drake's OVO label. When viewed on its own, it might seem relatively plain and simple.

However, combined with the Raptors' gold City Edition uniforms, which will be worn while playing on this floor at Scotiabank Arena, the two elements complement each other perfectly, creating a striking and luxurious contrast.

1. Orlando Magic

The Orlando Magic has the best-looking In-Season Tournament court for this year, with the "Magic" wordmark perfectly exhibiting the team name featuring the letter "A" stylized as a star.

The dominant gray shade of the court complements the Magic's dark blue color, resulting in a sleek and uncluttered appearance without unnecessary elements added.
