The club will play in the VTB United League and EuroLeague.

[1] This season therefore marks Zenit's debut in the highest European tier.

To participate in the tournament, the roster of Zenit was mostly changed - not only foreign but also Russian experienced players left the team: Andrey Desyatnikov, Evgeny Valiev and Sergey Karasev moved to Khimki.

They were changed by also experienced players from other Russian clubs: Andrey Zubkov (from Khimki), Anton Ponkrashov (from UNICS Kazan), Dmitry Khvostov and Mateusz Ponitka (both - from Lokomotiv Kuban) and some players from foreign leagues: Andrew Albicy (from Andorra), Alex Renfroe (from Partizan Belgrade), Austin Hollins (from Rasta Vechta), Gustavo Ayón (from Real Madrid), Will Thomas (from Valencia), Colton Iverson and Tim Abromaitis (both - from Iberostar Tenerife).
