Three clubs in EuroLeague, three in EuroCup, two in BCL and potentially several representatives in FIBA Europe Cup: the European landscape for French clubs is starting to take shape for the 2026-2027 season. While some participations are almost confirmed, others still depend on club decisions and organizer invitations.
BCL - Trailing by 20 points in the third quarter, BC Rytas Vilnius turned things around in the fourth quarter to force overtime and claim the victory. It is the first time the Lithuanian club has won the Basketball Champions League (BCL).
BCL - Killian Tillie and Malaga, two-time defending BCL champions, were eliminated in the semifinals by AEK Athens (78-65) on Thursday evening in Badalona.
BCL - BC Rytas Vilnius qualified for the first BCL final in their history with a dominant win (87-69) in the first semi-final of the Final Four, against Tenerife.
BCL - Jordan Floyd signs with Tofas Bursa for the rest of the season. The 28-year-old American combo guard returns to Turkey and the BCL after a stint in Israel, strengthening Bursa's squad for the Play-Ins against Cholet.
