The 2024 BSN finals (also known, for promotional reasons, as La Final Brava or The Brava Finals) was the championship series that decided the 2024 Baloncesto Superior Nacional champions in Puerto Rico. The best-of-seven playoffs pitted the one time (2006) champions Criollos from Caguas, versus the Osos from Manati, who were trying for their first title.
The series started on August 17 and finished on August 30, with the Criollos securing their second championship.[1] Travis Trice of the Criollos was named the Finals' Most Valuable Player.[2]
