CRITERIA AND PROCEDURE<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\nThe draw will be held according to seeds.<\/p>\n
\u2022 The 32 qualified teams will be divided into 8 seeds with four teams in each, in accordance with the Club Ranking elaborated for this purpose.<\/p>\n
\u2022 The performance of teams in Euroleague Basketball competitions during a three-year period will be used. Each club will get 2 points for a win and 1 point for a tie or loss from the Regular Season onwards. 2 bonus points are allocated for reaching the last 16, 2 bonus points are allocated for reaching the last 8, 1 bonus point is allocated for reaching the last 4, 1 bonus point is allocated for reaching the Finals. The Club Ranking consists of the sum of the club coefficients from the last three years. The results of the worst performing team from each country\/League will be added together every year to create a position for that country\/League in the Club Ranking. This is the lowest possible position that any club from that country\/League can occupy in the draw.<\/p>\n
\u2022 If two or more teams have the same Club Ranking, the tie will be resolved by the total number of wins during the three-year period. Should a tie persist, the final standings in the EuroLeague and if necessary EuroCup from the previous season will be used to break the tie. Should a tie persist, the final standings in the Domestic Championship from the previous season (after the playoffs) will be used to break the tie. Should a tie persist, a draw will be used to break the tie, with the Company determining the method for the draw.<\/p>\n
\u2022 The previous year’s champion and the first three teams in the Club Ranking participating in the Regular Season will be assigned to Seed 1. The next four teams will be assigned to Seed 2, the following four to Seed 3, the next four to Seed 4, and so on until all eight seeds have been determined.<\/p>\n
2026-27 DRAW SEEDS<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2026\/07\/unnamed-1.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
GROUP DRAW RESTRICTION<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\nThe restriction when drawing the teams into groups is the following:<\/p>\n
\u2022 Two teams from the same domestic league cannot coincide in the same Regular Season group, except when there are more than four teams from the same domestic league participating in the Regular Season. In this case, the draw will try to balance the amount of representatives in each Group until it is physically impossible to preserve the Group Draw Restrictions without blocking the draw.<\/p>\n
GROUP DRAW PROCEDURE<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\u2022 Teams will be drawn one by one from an urn containing only teams in the same Seed, from the 1 Seeds through to the 8 Seeds, until all 32 teams have been selected.<\/p>\n
\u2022 For each spot drawn, the urn will be emptied and refilled with only those teams from the level drawn, taking into consideration any restrictions.<\/p>\n
\u2022 In the Regular Season, teams from the same country may not coincide in the same group. Therefore, when drawing teams from the Seed 2 through to the Seed 8, only those teams from a country different than the ones already drawn into the Group will be placed in the urn. In the case of five teams from the same country participating in the Regular Season draw, the Group Draw Restrictions will be applied until it is physically impossible.<\/p>\n
\u2022\u00a0
e.g.1.<\/b>\u00a0If a spot is to be drawn into a Group where there is already a team from a specific country, the teams from the country in question will not be placed in the urn.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\u2022\u00a0
e.g.2.<\/b>\u00a0If a spot is to be drawn into a Group and a certain team(s) cannot be drawn in a later Group, this team(s) will be the only one(s) placed in the urn.<\/div>\n\u2022 A team may be placed directly into a Group to follow the restriction mentioned above.<\/p>\n
\u2022\u00a0 Drawing the teams as explained above will eliminate all possibilities of a blocked situation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
