List Of Teams That Have Qualified For The Basketball Africa League

List of teams that have qualified for the Basketball Africa League (2026 )

The FIBA Africa Clubs Champions Cup was started in 1971. Its name was later changed to the FIBA Africa Basketball League.

In 2019 the International Basketball Association (FIBA) and the National Basketball Association (NBA) of the United States partnered to create the Basketball Africa League (BAL).

No Nigerian club has won either the old African Clubs Champions Cup or the new Basketball Africa League (First Bank has won the women's equivalent twice). However, Nigerian clubs have placed third and fourth on many occasions.

Kano Pillars came 3rd in 1985 and 1987, Lagos Islanders came 3rd in 2000, Dodan Warriors came 3rd in 2006 and Rivers Hoopers came 3rd in 2024.

Union Bank came 4th in 2005 and Kano Pillars came 4th in 2016.
