The 2024 Emirates NBA Cup Final is scheduled on Tuesday, with the Milwaukee Bucks and OKC Thunder clashing at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. The Bucks have not lost a game in the tournament, while the Thunder had one defeat in the group stage.

Milwaukee beat the Orlando Magic and Atlanta Hawks before making their way to the NBA Cup Final. Giannis Antetokoumpo has been superb for the Bucks, not just in the tournament, but for the entire season. He has inserted himself into the MVP race due to his recent performances.

Meanwhile, the Thunder has been one of the best teams in the league this season and are even first in the Western Conference standings. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander remains the team's best player capable of carrying them to win. But it's their defense that makes them the favorite to win the NBA Cup.
