The qualifying round started on September 29, 2009, while the regular season of the Euroleague started on October 15, 2010. The season ended with the Euroleague Final Four, which was hosted at the Palais Omnisports de Paris-Bercy in Paris, France,Euroleague.net 2010 Final Four host is Paris! with the final on May 9, 2010.

Those teams joined 22 teams that had qualified directly to the regular season stage.Euroleague.net Euroleague restructuring outlined in the 2009–12 strategic plan.Euroleague.net 2009–12 New Competition System Podcast. Allocation A maximum of three teams could qualify from any one country through their league position. However, 14 clubs held Euroleague Basketball A-linceces, which gave them automatic spots in the Euroleague Regular Season until 2011–12, regardless of their domestic league finish. These licenses were granted via a formula that considers each team's performance in its domestic league and the Euroleague, the television revenues Euroleague Basketball collects from its home country and the team's home attendance. A-licence holders Spain: Caja Laboral, Real Madrid, Regal FC Barcelona, Unicaja Italy: Montepaschi Siena, Lottomatica Roma Greece: Olympiacos, Panathinaikos Russia: CSKA Moscow Turkey: Efes Pilsen, Fenerbahçe Ülker Lithuania: Žalgiris Israel: Maccabi Electra Tel Aviv France: ASVEL (qualifying round) The rest of the field was filled with teams that qualified through their performance in their respective national leagues and wild card invitations.

However, the club also earned a one-season "B Licence" for the Euroleague by winning its domestic championship, and the league's ranking was sufficiently high to give Rytas direct entry into the Regular Season. As a result, the Eurocup champion's C Licence went to Khimki Moscow Region of the Russian Basketball Super League as the ULEB Eurocup 2008–09 finalist.
