Pacers 2025 NBA Cup Court Unveiled
On Thursday, the NBA revealed the home courts for all 30 teams participating in the Cup Night games of the Emirates NBA Cup, which begins on November 12.
Previously known as the In-Season Tournament, this competition made its debut last year.
The design of the 30 courts was a collaborative effort between 2024 Emirates NBA Cup creative director Victor Solomon and each team.
Each court features the NBA Cup trophy at the center, with the home team’s logo overlaying it, and additional trophy references inside the free throw lines at both ends.
The design incorporates three concentric circles emanating from the center, varying in shades of the team’s primary color.
Last season, the Pacers used a vivid blue court.
This year, the court will be a deeper blue aligning with the Pacers’ traditional colors.
The sidelines are highlighted in Pacers gold, and the phrase “Boom Baby!”—a nod to Hall of Fame broadcaster Slick Leonard’s famous catchphrase—is prominently displayed on the playing surface and along the west sideline.
The court will premiere on Friday, November 15, when the Pacers face the Miami Heat in their first Cup Night game.
It will reappear two weeks later when the Detroit Pistons visit Gainbridge Fieldhouse on Friday, November 29.
The Pacers, Heat, and Pistons are part of East Group B, alongside the Bucks and Raptors. Indiana will play a Cup Night game in Milwaukee on Friday, November 22, and conclude Group Play in Toronto on Friday, December 3.
