2023 EuroLeague Playoffs

The 2023 EuroLeague Playoffs, known as the 2023 Turkish Airlines EuroLeague Playoffs for sponsorship purposes, were the first postseason portion of the 2022–23 EuroLeague basketball competition. They began on 25 April 2023 and were played through 10 May 2023. The top eight finishers in the regular season qualified for the playoffs, which consist of four series of two teams each, to be played in a best-of-five format. The winners of each of the playoffs series advanced to the Final Four, which determined the EuroLeague champion for the 2022–23 season.

Tiebreakers
When more than two teams are tied, the ranking will be established taking into account the victories obtained in the games played only among them. Should the tie persist among some, but not all, of the teams, the ranking of the teams still tied will be determined by again taking into account the victories in the games played only among them, and repeating this same procedure until the tie is entirely resolved. If a tie persists, the ranking will be determined by the goal difference in favour and against in the games played only among the teams still tied.

Series
The first playoff series was determined on 13 April 2023, in the last round of the regular season. Maccabi Playtika Tel Aviv won against Real Madrid, which ensured them the 5th place and a matchup against AS Monaco, who were already guaranteed to finish 4th. The remaining three series were determined a day later. Žalgiris, who started the round outside the playoffs, won against Bayern Munich to clinch 7th place and a matchup against Barcelona, who in the meantime defeated Valencia Basket to overtake Real Madrid for the 2nd place. By beating Panathinaikos at home in a dramatic fashion, Partizan Mozzart Bet finished 6th, with Real Madrid emerging as their opponent. Thus, Fenerbahçe Beko, who started the round at 5th place, dropped to 8th due to worse head-to-head record with Žalgiris, ensuring a matchup against regular season winners Olympiacos.

The schedule for the first four games of the series, with dates and times, was announced on 14 April 2023. Salle Gaston Médecin in Fontvieille hosted the playoffs' opening game, when AS Monaco played Maccabi Playtika Tel Aviv on 25 April 2023 at 20:15 CEST, and two games were played on each match day. The games were played in a 2–2–1 series format, wherein the higher seed hosted the first two games, the lower seed hosted the third and fourth games, and the higher seed returned to host the fifth and final game of each series; the fourth and fifth games of each series were played if necessary. The four series winners advanced to the 2023 EuroLeague Final Four, to be played in Kaunas between 19 and 21 May 2023.
