The 2022–23 CBA season was the 28th season of the Chinese Basketball Association (CBA). The season began on 21 October 2022 and ended on 5 April 2023.
The league consisted of 20 teams. The Liaoning Flying Leopards won their third championship in team history following their finals victory over the Zhejiang Golden Bulls.
On 17 April 2023, during the playoffs, the CBA ruled that the Jiangsu Dragons and Shanghai Sharks engaged in unsportsmanlike conduct following matchfixing suspicions, and were suspended for the next season. Coaches and players were given multiyear suspensions as well. On 15 January 2026, the United States Department of Justice Eastern District of Pennsylvania announced the indictment of Dragons player Antonio Blakeney for his involvement in the match-fixing and point shaving scheme. According to the Department of Justice report, gamblers Marves Fairley and Shane Hennen recruited Blakeney for the schemes, and Blakeney then recruited numerous CBA players for the corrupted matches. The bets took place in online casinos and in Pennsylvania sports books, which led to the charges being filed in the state. At the conclusion of the CBA season, Fairley sent a payment of $200,000 USD for participating in the scheme.
