Lakers win in-season tournament final behind Anthony Davis' 41-20
The Los Angeles Lakers are tied with the Boston celtics for the most championships in NBA history. But after Saturday night, they are the only team in NBA history to have won the NBA Cup. Behind a masterful performance from Anthony Davis, who had 41 points, 20 rebounds, 5 assists and 4 blocks, the Lakers won the inaugural in-season tournament with a 123-109 victory over the Indiana Pacers at T-Mobile Arena on Saturday night. LeBron James, who added 24 points, 11 rebounds and 4 assists, was named tournament MVP.Click Here For Full Story

LeBron James wins in-season tournament MVP; 'no jealousy' from AD
LeBron James sat at the podium, barely damp after speeding through a postgame champagne celebration after winning MVP of the NBA's inaugural in-season tournament on Saturday. He placed the trophy on his left. Sitting to his right was the person who made the hardware possible and someone who, quite frankly, outplayed him in Saturday's 123-109 championship win over the Indiana Pcers. Despite 41 points, 20 rebounds, 5 assists and 4 blocks from Anthony Davis forcing Indiana's Myles Turner to foul out while defending the Los Angeles Lakers big man's relentless attacks to the paint -- James and Davis had no problem with the pecking order. The Lakers weren't shy about their motivation to win the tournament beyond the competition. The $500,000 cash prize for every player on the winning team was something that James prioritized, recognizing it represented an opportunity that was a far cry from his tough upbringing in Akron, Ohio.Click Here For Full Story

Los Angeles Lakers to hang banner that honors NBA Cup win
After the Los Angeles Lakers failed to defend their 2020 championship when they lost in the first round to the Phoenix Suns in 2021, general manager Rob Pelinka stated the franchise's aspirations in no uncertain terms. Turns out the Lakers will be hanging another banner at Crypto.com Arena to recognize winning the inaugural NBA in-season tournament in Las Vegas, but the team is making sure the NBA Cup victory won't be confused with the ultimate goal of a championship. The in-season tournament banner will have a different shape and color than the existing gold NBA championship banners that line the rafters. There will also be just one in-season tournament banner that the Lakers will use to honor their win in 2023 and any future years should they win the tournament again.Click here For Full Story

NBA in-season tournament: What's next after a stellar debut in Las Vegas
Despite the praise from league insiders, players and fans for the debut of the NBA's in-season tournament, even its architect admitted it won't come back in exactly the same format next season. Perhaps the biggest topic over the past several weeks around potential changes was the possibility of adding a reward for the championship team. The Lakers, for instance, dominated the tournament, winning all seven games by more than 19 points per contest, but the rewards are limited to the players and coaches earning cash prizes for their accomplishment.Click Here For Full Story

Lakers embrace in-season tournament win with banner ceremony
The new in-season tournament championship banner unveiled by the Los Angeles Lakers on Monday night won't be mistaken for the NBA title totems that dot the rafters at Crypto.com Arena, but it's something the team is proud of in its own right. Lakers players paused their pregame warmups for a brief ceremony about 20 minutes prior to tipoff. A video tribute featuring highlights from L.A.'s 7-0 run through the tournament, culminating in a championship win over the Indiana Pacers in Las Vegas just over a week ago, was played on the videoboard. Then a black curtain that covered the banner was lowered to display the new decor.Click Here For Full Story
