The NBA will consider returning Larry O'Brien Trophy decals to the court for NBA Finals games after the 2024-25 season, commissioner Adam Silver told reporters on Friday.

The NBA has become notorious for having celebrities sitting courtside at games, but as the NBA Finals started Thursday there was a huge void of notable faces.

Silver's announcement sounds promising after the poor reception to the tournament structure applied to this year's All-Star Game. Whatever the format of the game, Silver's decision to pivot to a format with a global identity appropriately accommodates their media partner's broadcast plans for the Milano Cortina Games in Northeast Italy.
