In the first phase, ten teams compete in a home-and-away round-robin series (18 games total). Teams advanced from the regular season to one of two postseason stages, depending on their league position.

Second phase

The top five teams from the regular season advanced to the championship phase. Cedevita Olimpija start their competition from this phase. These teams start the second phase from scratch, with no results carrying over from the regular season.
