FIBA West Asia Super League

The FIBA West Asia Super League (WASL) is a regional basketball league organised by FIBA Asia, consisting of clubs from West Asia, India and Kazakhstan. The league was announced in 2022 and started with the inaugural season from December, until June 2023.

There are two zones in the competition: West Asia and the Gulf. The top four teams from each zone compete in the final eight for the title. The champion and runner-up qualify for the Basketball Champions League Asia (BCL).

Al Riyadi is the most successful team in the league's history, having won two titles.
