Notes:

1. ^ Prometey withdrew from the Basketball Champions League due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Thus, according to article D.5.1 of the FIBA Official Basketball Rules, all its results in the relevant phases were annulled.[9]
2. ^ The rescheduled game was played in Nymburk (Czech Republic) instead of Kyiv by the decision of FIBA Europe.[10]
