Just as it has been the case so far, the Semi-finals will be played in a best of three series and Finals in the best of five series.

The ABA League j.t.d. Assembly has decided that wild cards for two additional spots in the ABA League 2 will be free of charge and that they would be obtained by Široki and Zlatibor, which, alongside 12 previously revealed participants, completes the list of participants of the ABA League 2 for the 2021/22 season.

Also, the ABA League j.t.d. Assembly has decided to approve the request of the basketball federations of Montenegro, Serbia and Slovenia, to reschedule the 9th round of the ABA League, so that the national teams would have more time to prepare themselves for their tests in the 2023 World Cup Qualifiers.

In the end, the ABA League j.t.d. Assembly has thanked Saša Pavličić Bekić, whose mandate as the ABA League Disciplinary Judge expired on 30 June 2021, for everything that he has done for the development of the ABA League and wished him good luck in the remainder of his career.
