Qualified teams
The top seven ranking teams after the first half of the 2023–24 ACB regular season qualified to the tournament. As Unicaja, host team, finished between the seven first teams, the eighth qualified entered in the Copa del Rey.

Venue
On February 20, 2023, ACB selected and announced Málaga to host the Copa del Rey in February 2024. The arena was opened in 1999. It has been the long–time home arena to one of Spain's top ACB teams, Unicaja. The arena originally had a seating capacity of 9,743 spectators, and an area of around 22,000 square meters. In 2007, a project was proposed to expand the capacity of the venue to 17,000 spectators, due to the high demand for seats and tickets by fans of Unicaja. Ultimately, the expansion project was approved, but to a new capacity of 13,000 spectators, rather than the originally planned 17,000. The expansion project was then scheduled to be completed in separate phases. The first expansion phase, which was completed in 2010, increased the seating capacity from 9,743 to 11,000.

Draw
The draw was held on 15 January 2024 in Málaga, Spain. The top four ranking teams act as seeded teams in the draw of the quarterfinals. For its part, the top ranked team played its quarterfinal match on Thursday.

Bracket
 

Real Madrid vs. UCAM Murcia
Real Madrid reached its 11th consecutive semifinal after beating UCAM Murcia that fought until the end in a close match. A complete performance of Facundo Campazzo (16 points and 4 assists) and the contributions of Gabriel Deck (15 points), Mario Hezonja (14 points) and Sergio Llull (13 points) prevented further damage and allowed Real Madrid to comply with the script and clinch, with more suffering than expected, their ticket to the semifinals against UCAM Murcia that gave everything and had options until the end, but were hampered by their poor 3-point percentage in a match where they were behind on the scoreboard from start to finish. In this match, Sergio Llull became the player with more 3-pointers made in the history of the final stage of the Copa del Rey.

Dreamland Gran Canaria vs. Valencia Basket
Valencia Basket reached the semifinals after beating Dreamland Gran Canaria in extra time. The Valencian defense and Brandon Davies's energy (17 points and 7 rebounds) were decisive. A 10–0 streak near of the end of the fourth quarter and their greatest skill in extra time helped Valencia Basket from being eliminated from the Copa del Rey at the hands of a brave Dreamland Gran Canaria which, after dominating for much of the match and forcing extra time at the buzzer, ended up giving in to the faith of its rival, which knew how to overcome the scoring exhibition of Sylven Landesberg with 25 points.

Barça vs. Baxi Manresa
Barça had to work hard to overcome a great Baxi Manresa. The exhibition in the hoops of Willy Hernangómez (16 points and 10 rebounds) in his return to the Copa del Rey eight years later and the skills and intelligence of Jabari Parker (19 points) and Nicolás Laprovíttola (18 points) broke the resistance of a choral Baxi Manresa which kept in the match for 38 minutes with Barça that, after its early elimination in 2023, returned to the semifinals two years later.

Unicaja vs. Lenovo Tenerife
Lenovo Tenerife achieved, one year later, the revenge of 2023 final against Unicaja that, on this occasion, was defeated, after a vibrant quarterfinal match that anyone could have won, but where the scoring skill shown by Aaron Doornekamp (25 points with 6/6 in three-pointers), Kyle Guy (23 points) and Giorgi Shermadini (17 points) were the keys in the Canarian team's pass to the semifinals, where Barça was already waiting for them.

Real Madrid vs. Valencia Basket
Real Madrid advanced to the Copa del Rey final by downing Valencia Basket in the first semifinal. Džanan Musa led the winners with 18 points. Guerschon Yabusele added 14, Sergio Llull had 11 while Facundo Campazzo and Vincent Poirier each got 10 for Real Madrid. Brandon Davies led Valencia with 18 points. Justin Anderson and Xabier López-Arostegui had 12 apiece. Davies and Chris Jones each struck from downtown to give Valencia Basket an early 3–6 lead. Real Madrid found a go–to guy in Musa, who had 7 points in a 16–0 run that Yabusele capped with a basket that boosted Real Madrid' lead to 19–6. Jones and Semi Ojeleye brought Valencia Basket closer, 23–17, after 10 minutes. López-Arostegui got Valencia Basket within 42–39 near halftime, then Musa and Mario Hezonja boosted Real Madrid's lead to 48–39 at halftime. Musa and Yabusele got help from Campazzo to break the game open, 65–44, soon after the break, and Real Madrid never looked back.

Barça vs. Lenovo Tenerife
Barça reached the Copa del Rey final for the 39th time by thrashing Lenovo Tenerife in Málaga. Willy Hernangómez led Barça with 15 points. Darío Brizuela added 13 while Álex Abrines, Joel Parra and Rokas Jokubaitis had for 10 for Barça, who trailed 14–16 after 10 minutes. Brizuela, Tomáš Satoranský and Abrines each struck from downtown in a 27–4 run that broke the game open, 41–20. Barça soon boosted its margin to 54–24 at the break. That 30-point lead at halftime is one of the three records Barça beat in this game, along with most points in a quarter (40) and biggest difference in a quarter (40–8, +32). Barça went on to keep a really safe lead until the final buzzer ahead of its next game against Real Madrid in a new edition of El Clásico at the Copa del Rey final.

Final
Real Madrid won the Copa del Rey for a record 29th time after holding off archrival Barça in the final. Facundo Campazzo starred with 18 points and 6 assists and Vincent Poirier posted 17 points and 8 rebounds to lead the winners in a perfect final for the French center. Džanan Musa and Guerschon Yabusele added 15 points apiece, Gabriel Deck scored 13 and Mario Hezonja 12. Jabari Parker paced Barça with 19 points, Tomáš Satoranský contributed 15 and Jan Veselý 14. Real Madrid jumped out to a 9–2 start and Barça came back to tie the final in 19–19 at the end of the first quarter. It was 43–45 at halftime and Veselý put Barça up by 4 early in the third quarter. Real Madrid turned the tables to take a 66–63 lead into the fourth quarter. Three–pointers made by Yabusele and Deck saw Madrid pad their lead, but Barça kept it close, 81–77, after a Satoranský basket with less than 4 minutes to play. A 12–2 run then put the game on ice and started the celebrations.
