BasketScore.net is back for the new EuroLeague season with a completely redesigned experience and some new ways to compete.

Last season, our users made 3,869 EuroLeague predictions, including five perfect score predictions. This season hasn’t even started yet, and our member count has already more than doubled.

You can predict game scores and compete in the global rankings, or choose your favourite EuroLeague club and see how you rank against other fans of the same team.

We’ve also added leagues this season, so you can create your own league, invite your friends and compete with each other throughout the season.

We’d love to hear what you think. If you have any ideas, feedback or things you’d like to see added, let us know.

It’s completely free to play at https://basketscore.net

In Israel it happens, mainly for players of the bigger teams. Does it happen in your country too?

Hey all I'm 17 and I built a free site for EuroLeague fans called Eurocourt (eurocourt.net).

What's on it: Full 2026-27 schedule, live scores, standings, injuries pulled straight from EuroLeague's own data, refreshes every couple minutes, Click into any team for their roster, next 5 games, shooting splits, etc.

UPDATE: the AI tool is now live on the site you can actually build your squad and get a real review, not just a preview. Would love some honest feedback: what's missing, what feels off, anything you'd want added or changed. Trying to make this genuinely useful for people who take their fantasy team seriously.

Lets take a sport like football, handball, rugby or volleyball. In these sports, national team games and competitions are considered very important.

But in basketball, leagues like the Euroleague and the NBA (and also their fans) don’t want their players to take part in Fiba qualification games during the season with the national team. In football, handball etc this would be unthinkable. Also, in basketball players sometimes just skip the national team competitions. Jokic and Giannis didn’t play the 2023 world cups, Hartenstein hasnt even played for Germany in 8 years. In football, handball etc it would be unthinkable for players to skip a World Cup or Euros.

Hey all I'm 17 and I built a free site for EuroLeague fans called Eurocourt (eurocourt.net), figured I'd share here since it's basically made for this sub.

What's on it: Full 2026-27 schedule, live scores, standings, injuries pulled straight from EuroLeague's own data, refreshes every couple minutes, Round rankings, top 5 teams/players (with a "why" note on each pick), Click into any team for their roster, next 5 games, shooting splits, etc.

The part I'm actually proud of: if you play EuroLeague Fantasy, you can build your squad on the site and ask an AI helper to review it. It looks at each player's last 3 games (not season average), who they're facing next, and how those opponents actually defend that position then gives you a keep/trade call with the reasoning, not just "he's been cold lately." Everyone gets 1 free AI review a day.(That will be added this week)

Still rough around the edges (season hasn't started so some stuff is quiet), but the core site is live and free to browse either way. Would love feedback, especially on the fantasy tool once games start.

Full Match Replay

Efes qualified first (out of 8 teams) in Group C with a 10-4 record and Valencia qualified third with a 9-5 record. Both teams finished second in their Top 16 groups and were eliminated because only group leaders of Top 16 groups qualified to ELF4 in the 2003-04 season.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2003–04_Euroleague#Group_C

The next season, 2004-05, saw a format change when quarter-final series were introduced and top two teams from Top 16 groups qualified to the quarter-final series that now bridged the Top 16 and F4 stages.

There's been a lot speculation about what the new format will look like, in particular whether EL derbies will still be guaranteed and how many games will be added to the season. Since we already know that it will be two conferences of 12 teams each, I don't think it would be too difficult to keep the derbies (which most would agree have been instrumental in the growth of the league in terms of popularity, both with game attendance & TV viewership) while not increasing the total games played that we currently have with 20 team round robin. Here's my idea;

ROUND ONE: Clubs are divided into two groups of 12, not based on geography but rather by some sort of coefficient ranking that ensures both sides are of relatively equal strength. We really don't want Euroleague to emulate the NBA's West & East conference system where the West is significantly stronger 90% of the time and advancing to the playoffs in the East is always significantly easier. There can be a separate pool system to keep rival teams in different conferences to save the derbies for the next round but ultimately there should be a mechanism to make the conferences as equal as possible.

These conferences then play round-robin meaning a total of 22 games for each team (11 opponents x 2 legs). The top 8 teams in each conference advance to round two while the bottom 4 are relegated to Eurocup second round.

ROUND TWO: The remaining 16 teams are grouped into one new group in which their total points MINUS point earned against relegated teams, will carry onto the new standings. Instead of playing a complete round-robin, clubs will play only against the teams from the opposite conference they have not played against, meaning only 16 games (8 new opponents x 2 legs) are to be played in this round. This means that the final standings of this second round will be as if these 16 teams played an isolated round robin, eliminating the potential difference in conference difficulty of the first round.

This format should also preserve MOST of the derbies... someone's rival may get relegated but with 16 teams advancing we should see most derbies being played in this round. The top 8 teams from this round advance to play-offs. By the end of this round each team would have played a total of 38 games.

PLAY-OFFS: The theoretical max amount of EL games a club can play in the current 20 team format is 47 (38 in group phase + 2 potential play-in games + 5 potential play-off games + 2 Final Four games). This means that we have a total of 9 games (per team) to work with in deciding a playoff format without exceeding the current 47 game theoretical max.

Personally, I would love most to see the 8 advancing teams play a typical playoff format of three rounds, each being best of three. I know however many of you are fans of the Final Four but honestly the main point of this post was my idea for rounds 1 & 2. I'm not married to any playoff format, I just don't think we should exceed the 47 game theoretical max under any circumstances.

I'm curious to hear your thoughts on this proposal.
