2015–16 Baltic Basketball League

This season’s competition included 6 teams from Estonia, 5 teams from Latvia and Lithuania and one team from Kazakhstan, which played all its games away.[3] For the regular season the teams were divided into two groups of seven teams and competed in a round-robin competition system, with team facing each of their opponents twice. The teams qualified for the eighth-finals based on their ranking after the regular season. Out of the five teams who participated in FIBA Europe Cup competition – Ventspils, Juventus, Šiauliai, TÜ/Rock and Pieno žvaigždės – the latter three didn't qualify for the FIBA Europe Cup playoffs and thus begin their journey at the start of the BBL play-offs, seeded respectively first, second and third based on last season’s results.[4] All play-off games were played in home-and-away series.

Tartu Ülikool/Rock became the first Estonian team to reach the Baltic League finals. In the Finals they lost with an aggregate score of 157–176 to Lithuanian team Šiauliai who won their third title in a row. Third place belonged to Lithuanian side Lietkabelis who beat Latvian team Valmiera/ORDO with aggregate score of 160–154.
