[1] Until the 2004–05 season, the league was known as the A-Liga (A-League) and then until the 2008–09 season it was called the Österreichische Basketball Bundesliga (ÖBL).

In 2019, the competition was replaced by the Austrian Basketball Superliga.

The two semi-finals winners meet in a best-of-seven championship series.

The ÖBL held an annual all-star game, pitting a team of the best Austrian players in the league against a team made up of the league's top international players.

Like the NBA All-Star Game, the ÖBL All-Star festivities included a slam dunk contest and a three-point shooting competition.
