  • The Euroleague basketball season will commence earlier than the domestic Super Cup this year, a shift from previous schedules.
  • The Euroleague tips off on September 24-25, followed by the Super Cup on September 26-27, featuring Olympiacos, Panathinaikos, AEK, and PAOK.
  • If the Euroleague Super Cup proceeds, Olympiacos's season could begin even earlier, on September 19-20.

The upcoming Euroleague basketball season is set to begin earlier than the traditional domestic Super Cup, marking a notable change in the scheduling calendar. The premier European club competition is slated to tip off its new year on September 24-25. This early start precedes the Super Cup, which will take place on September 26-27.

The participating teams in the Super Cup have been confirmed as Olympiacos, Panathinaikos, AEK, and PAOK. Discussions are ongoing regarding the venue for the Super Cup, with Rhodes, Heraklion, and Cyprus being proposed locations during a meeting of the Hellenic Basketball League (ESAKE).

A significant point of consideration is that if the Euroleague Super Cup is held as planned, Olympiacos's competitive obligations could commence even sooner. Their season might begin as early as the weekend of September 19-20, depending on the final Super Cup schedule.
