The NBA Cup quarterfinals is nearing the end, and the New York Knicks are still in contention.

The Knicks (16-7) take on the Toronto Raptors (15-10) in the quarterfinals of the NBA Cup on Tuesday night from Scotiabank Arena in Toronto.

The winner of this game will advance to the NBA Cup semifinals, where they’ll play the winner of the Orlando Magic vs. Miami Heat in Las Vegas on Saturday, Dec. 13 with a spot in the NBA Cup championship on the line next Tuesday, Dec. 16.

This is the second head-to-head meeting for these two Atlantic Division mates, as the Knicks came out on top in the first matchup 116-94 just over a week ago at Madison Square Garden.

Tuesday night marks one of two trips for the Knicks north of the border this season, as they won’t have to play in Toronto again until March 3, 2026.

The NBA Cup quarterfinals will continue on Wednesday night, with the 23-1 defending NBA champion Oklahoma City Thunder welcoming in the Phoenix Suns (13-10) followed by the Los Angeles Lakers (17-6) hosting the San Antonio Spurs (15-7), with Spurs’ superstar Victor Wembanyama potentially making his return from a left calf strain he suffered in mid-November that’s caused him to miss the last 10 games. Even without the 2023 No. 1 overall pick in that span, the Spurs have played well, posting a 7-3 record without the 7-foot-4 Wembanyama in the lineup.
