Emirates NBA Cup Companion

NBA Cup Companion is a lightweight, single-purpose browser extension built for fans following the Emirates NBA Cup — the NBA's in-season tournament running from Group Play tip-off on October 30, 2026, through the Championship on December 11, 2026, at Hinkle Fieldhouse in Indianapolis.

The extension opens as a simple popup with everything a fan needs in one place — no separate tabs, no sign-up, no clutter.

Key Features

⏱ Live Countdown
The first thing you see. A real-time countdown (displayed in US Eastern Time) to the next Cup Night or knockout round — Group Play, Quarterfinals, Semifinals, or the Championship. The countdown automatically switches to a "live" indicator during each round's active game window.

🏀 Scores by Date
Select any date using the built-in date picker to pull that day's real NBA game results, including team names, final or in-progress scores, and game status (Final, live quarter and clock, or scheduled tip-off time). Not restricted to Cup Nights — check any date across the season.

📅 Schedule
A clear list of every Group Play Cup Night and every knockout round date, from tip-off through the Championship.

📊 Groups
All six 2026 tournament groups (three per conference), each showing its full five-team roster.

🏀 Teams
A searchable index of all 30 NBA teams, each tagged with its assigned group, so you can quickly look up any team's tournament path.

🏆 Standings
Tiebreaker rules for group winners and conference wild cards, plus guidance on where to check live, up-to-date standings once Group Play begins.
