2024 Basketball Champions League Asia | |
The 2024 Basketball Champions League Asia was the first edition of the Basketball Champions League Asia, and the 29th season of the continent's top club competition. The tournament was previously known as the FIBA Asia Champions Cup, and was last held in 2019. [1] The main tournament was scheduled to take place in Dubai in the United Arab Emirates. It was co-organized by the UAE Basketball Association and Shabab Al Ahli Club. [2] [3]
The tournament was held at Sheikh Saeed Bin Maktoum Sports Hall. Al Riyadi of Lebanon won their third title and they earned the right to play in the 2024 FIBA Intercontinental Cup. [4]
The inaugural BCL Asia tournament features the top eight clubs from across the continent. Originally, champions from Japan (B. League), South Korea (KBL), China (CBA League), and the Philippines (PBA) were set for automatic qualification. [5] However, due to a busy schedule following their co-hosting of the 2023 FIBA Basketball World Cup, the Philippine Basketball Association opted out. [6] Their slot was filled by the tournament host, Shabab Al Ahly. [7]
To complete the eight-team field, two teams from East and Southeast Asia punched their tickets to the BCL Asia tournament through the qualifiers, with Pelita Jaya and NS Matrix Deers emerging victorious. [8] Meanwhile, the champions, Al Riyadi, and third-place finishers, Shahrdari Gorgan, from the 2023–24 FIBA West Asia Super League completed the lineup. [9]
The following teams qualified to the main tournament. [10] Years in bold denote the team won the competition.
