2026 EuroCup Basketball Playoffs

The 2026 EuroCup Basketball Playoffs began on 11 March with the eighthfinals and ended on 28 April 2026 with the Finals to decide the champions of the 2025–26 EuroCup Basketball. A total of 12 teams from nine countries competed in the playoffs.

Times are CET/CEST,^[a] as listed by Euroleague Basketball (local times, if different, are in parentheses).

Format

In the playoffs, teams play against each other in a knockout tournament into four rounds from eighthfinals to finals. At the end of the regular season, the six teams from each group with the most wins qualified for the playoffs. The two top teams from each regular season group received a bye and qualified directly to the quarterfinals. The remaining eight qualified teams entered the eighthfinals to compete in a single-game format in which the third-placed teams of each group faced off against the sixth-placed teams of the opposite groups and the fourth-placed teams of each group faced off against the fifth-placed teams of the opposite groups. The four winning teams from eighthfinals entered the quarterfinals to faced off in a single-game format in the home of the two top teams from each regular season group. The higher-placed regular season team in each matchup enjoyed home court advantage in eighthfinals and quarterfinals. From semifinals onwards, teams play in best-of-three series with the first leg and third leg, if necessary, in the home court of the higher-placed regular season team to crown the EuroCup champion.^[1]^[2]
