The league usually, but not always, includes domestic champions from the leading countries. Depending on the country, places in the Euroleague may be awarded on the basis of:
* Performance in the previous season's domestic league.
* Performance over the previous two or three domestic seasons.
* Contracts with ULEB.

For example, two 2007-08 domestic champions from ULEB member countries will not compete in the 2008-09 Euroleague—Zadar (Croatia) and Hapoel Holon (Israel). Zadar will play in the second-level Eurocup in 2008-09. Hapoel Holon, however, will not compete in "any" of the three European continental club competitions—not even the third-tier EuroChallenge (which is run by FIBA Europe instead of ULEB).

European Champions' Cup Teams Divided

The Euroleague (or historically called, the "European Champions' Cup") was originally established by FIBA and it operated under its umbrella from 1958 until the summer of 2000, including the 1999/2000 season. That was when ULEB, short for the Union of European Leagues of Basketball, was created by the 24 richest club teams, most of them from Spain, Italy and Greece.

Amazingly, FIBA had never trademarked the Euroleague name and ULEB simply used it without any legal ramifications because FIBA had no legal recourse to do anything about it, so they had to find a new name for their league. Thus, the following 2000/2001 season started with 2 separate top European basketball competitions: the FIBA Suproleague (known as the FIBA Euroleague up to that point) and the brand new ULEB Euroleague.

The rift in European club basketball initially showed no signs of letting up. Top clubs were also split between the two leagues: Panathinaikos, Maccabi Tel Aviv, CSKA Moscow and Efes Pilsen stayed with FIBA, while Olympiacos Piraeus, Kinder Bologna, Real Madrid, FC Barcelona, TAU Cerámica and Benetton Treviso joined ULEB.

In May of 2001, Europe had two continental champions, Maccabi of the FIBA Suproleague and Kinder Bologna of the ULEB Euroleague. The leaders of both organizations realized the need to come up with a new single competition. Negotiating from the position of strength, ULEB dictated proceedings and FIBA essentially had no choice but to agree to their terms. As a result, the Euroleague was fully integrated under ULEB's umbrella and teams that competed in the FIBA Suproleague during the 2000/2001 season joined it as well.

In essence, the authority in European basketball was divided over club-country lines. FIBA stayed in charge of national team competitions (like the European Championships, World Championships, and the Olympics) while ULEB took over the professional club competitions. From that point on, FIBA's Korac Cup and Saporta Cup competitions lasted only one more season before folding, which was when ULEB launched the ULEB Cup, now known as the Eurocup.

Euroleague Format

The first phase is the Regular season, in which 24 teams, divided into three groups of eight, participate. Each team plays two games (home-and-away) against every other team in its group. At the end of the regular season, the field is cut from 24 to 16; the surviving teams are divided into four groups. In the 2008-09 season, there will be four groups of six teams, first four teams in each group will proceed to the second phase.

The second phase, known as the Top 16, then begins. As in the regular season, each Top 16 group is contested in a double round-robin format.

The third phase, the Quarterfinal round, has been played since the 2004-05 season. Before, only the group winners advanced to the Final Four (see below). Now, the first- and second-place teams from each group advance. In the quarterfinal round, the first-place team from each group is matched against a second-place team from another group in a best-of-three series (in 2008-2009 season, best-of-five series, with two of the three possible games scheduled at the first-place team's home court).

The Final Four, held at a predetermined site, features the winners of the four quarterfinal series in one-off knockout matches. The semifinal losers play for third place; the winners play for the championship.

The 2009 Final Four will be held on May 1-3 at the O₂ World in Berlin.

Trivia

* Real Madrid has been the most successful team, having won the competition a record eight times.
* Panathinaikos is the most successful team since the Final Four system introduction, having won 4 out of 20 Final Fours.
* During the 1970s, Pallacanestro Varese, then competing under sponsorship names Ignis and later on Mobilgirgi and Emerson, reached all 10 finals. These consecutive final matches (of which it won five) were the only ones ever reached by this club.
* Athens is the only city, from which three different clubs Panathinaikos, Olympiacos and AEK have participated in Euroleague finals.

An attendance of 18,900 fans has also been achieved three times in home matches of Panathinaikos, against Efes Pilsen in 2005 and Tau Ceramica (twice) in 2006.
* Although Israel is located in the Middle East, its teams play in the Euroleague (similar to Israel's national football team and clubs playing for UEFA competitions).
* In the small area of less than 40 km² in the northern metropolitan area of Milan, there are 3 clubs that have won a total of 10 European Champions' Cups and played a total of 16 finals:
** Pallacanestro Cantù, which won the Euroleague twice, is the team of the small city of Cantù (only 37,870 inhabitants), located 25 km north of Milan.
** Pallacanestro Varese, which won 5 Euroleagues, is from the city of Varese (96,917 inhabitants), which is located a few miles west from Cantù and Milan.
** Olimpia Milano is from the city of Milan itself.
* Record score for a final game was achieved in the 2004 finals in Tel Aviv, where home club Maccabi Tel Aviv defeated Skipper Bologna by a score of 118-74 (44 point difference).
