TheAll-EuroLeague Team is anaward forEurope's premier level league, theEuroLeague, that is given to the league's top tenbasketball players for each season, since the 2000–01 season. During theFIBA era of the EuroLeague, players were honored first by being a part of theFIBA Festival, and later by being selected to theFIBA EuroStars. Under FIBA, the EuroLeague also originally featured aEuroLeague Final Four Team selection, which was a forerunner of the All-EuroLeague Team award, and which consisted of the five best players of theEuroLeague Final Four.
In a year in which European professional clubbasketball was divided between theEuroleague Basketball-organized2000–01 EuroLeague, and theFIBA-organized2000–01 FIBA SuproLeague, it was the Euroleague Basketball organized competition that selected the inaugural All-EuroLeague Team.
Within the inaugural team, onlyRashard Griffith ofVirtus Bologna had reached the competition's semifinals with his team, and only one other player,Fortitudo Bologna'sGregor Fučka, made it to the competition's quarterfinals with his. With the exception of that original All-EuroLeague Team selection, team success has been capital for a player to achieve All-EuroLeague status, in the great majority of cases. The priority of the team success criteria, as a part of the media member's voting, was unofficially established, after the merger ofEuroleague Basketball'sEuroLeague, and FIBA Europe'sFIBA SuproLeague, at the end of the 2000–01 season.
Team success, and not individual stats, is the paramount criteria in the selection process. Each season's All-EuroLeague Team consists of ten players total, with five players chosen for both the First and Second Team.
In the selection process, through the2010–11 EuroLeague season, each voter had to choose 2point guards, 4shooting guards and/orsmall forwards, and 4power forwards and/orcenters. The players were listed by the positions that the EuroLeague deemed to place them at for the voting process, even though in some cases, this may not have properly reflected what position the player usually played at, nor reflect if some players often played at multiple positions.
Since the2011–12 EuroLeague season, voting is no longer limited by position, as 5 players are picked by both the fan and media voters, regardless of their positions. This change was made to give voters the opportunity to choose any players they want for the team, rather than limiting them to choices based on positions. Online fan voting accounts for 25% of the vote total, while media voting for the remaining 75%.
The online fan vote for the All-EuroLeague Team is collected through online voting at the EuroLeague's official website, which allows for one vote every 24 hours from each individualIP address. The player that receives the most online fan votes for the All-EuroLeague Team, also receives the full 25% of the fan's vote for theEuroLeague MVP choice.
Since the2024-25 EuroLeague season, the votes from the head coaches and team captains each amount to 35% of the total, while media votes count for 20% and the fans’ total is 10%. Also a new award has been introduced: the EuroLeague Play-in Showdown and Playoffs MVP. The winner is named by Euroleague Basketball based on his and his team's performance during the play-in and playoffs.[1]
