Eurocup Basketball (also known as the ULEB Eurocup and previously known as the
ULEB Cup from 2002–2008) is the
second-tier level transnational professional
basketball competition in
Europe. It is the league level that is one level below the
Euroleague. It is organized by the
Euroleague Basketball Company, which also oversees the first-tier Euroleague competition. It is mainly composed of teams from European domestic national leagues that are part of the
ULEB (a
French acronym for "Union of European Basketball Leagues"), and that do not have a contract to compete in the Euroleague.
