Now that we have the 4 team standing for the Semifinals of the inaugural NBA In-Season Tournament, the league unveil the trophies as well as the awards that will be given to the winners for the tournament, this in addition to the cash prize that the team and players will receive from the league.

From NBA;

There are cash prizes for reaching the knockout round in the tournament, and the prizes will keep growing as a team advances. Each player gets $500,000 for winning the title, $200,000 for making the final, $100,000 for reaching the semifinals and $50,000 for making the quarterfinals. There is one caveat: two-way players on those rosters only get half as much as those on standard contracts.
