Greek basketball clubs in European and worldwide competitions is the performance record of men's professional basketball clubs from Greece's top-tier level league, the Greek Basketball League, in international competitions.
Greek professional basketball clubs have played in European-wide competitions since the 1957âÂÂ58 season, when Panellinios took part in the European top-tier level FIBA European Champions Cup (now called EuroLeague). Basketball was the first team sport in which Greek teams won a European-wide competition. AEK won the second-tier level FIBA European Cup Winners' Cup in the 1967âÂÂ68 season, when they beat Slavia Và  Praha in the final that took place in Athens.
Nevertheless, Greek basketball was actually mainly boosted following the gold medal-winning triumph at the 1987 EuroBasket and runners-up 1989 EuroBasket, by the senior men's Greek National Team. In the following decades, Greek teams have dominated in European-wide professional club basketball, winning many trophies in continental competitions. The Greek clubs have won nineteen European basketball competition titles.
The Greek teams have won the European first-tier level competitions, the EuroLeague and Basketball Champions League, a total of eleven times, with seven EuroLeague championships being won by Panathinaikos, three EuroLeague championships being won by Olympiacos, and one BCL championship being won by AEK Athens. Also, the Greek basketball clubs have been runners-up in European competitions fifteen times.
