It looks like there may be a leak of the NBA Cup court for the Kings this year.

If this is accurate, I'm a plus on the gray (the harsh colors of some of the courts last year made viewing rough during some games), but maybe a minus on the design. There's a bit too much going on. The concentric circles? OK. The crown-herringbone design? OK. Both? A bit much.

Yeah, it's a little bit busy.

Yeah, it's a little bit busy.

What might have worked better would be instead of the circles, color the crown with the darkest gray and on each subsequent outer crown shade the gray just a little bit lighter to give it a crown-shaped gradient all the way to the edge.

I actually think it looks kinda cool. But what do I know.

At the end of the day, it's just a hardwood court for playing the game of basketball. As long as it isn't super distracting, I couldn't care less what it looks like.

Yeah, it's not terrible. We have to see what it looks like on camera. Lines sometimes don't play games on video. I would hope they did screen tests just to make sure.

I kinda like it. The Captain may be right with both the circles and the crown shapes being a tad busy, but overall it's OK in my book. I really like the crown outlines like that.

With the relatively subdued color palette, I think the court needs the ornate patterning in order to grab attention.
