Quarter-final ties
The quarter-final ties will be played in a best-of-three format with the games taking place on February 28th, March 3rd and March 8th (if required). If any team takes a 2-0 advantage by the end of the second game, there will be no need to play the third tie. The four winners will progress to the semi-final stage of the tournament.
- Quarter-final A: Lokomotiv Kuban Krasnodar vs Zenit St. Petersburg
- Quarter-final B: FC Bayern Munich vs Unicaja Malaga
- Quarter-final C: Hapoel Bank Yahav Jerusalem vs Herbalife Gran Canaria Las Palmas
- Quarter-final D: Valencia Basket vs Khimki Moscow Region
Quarter-final A is an all-Russian tie but there is no all-Spanish affair with the Spaniards being drawn out against representatives from the other nations.
