EuroLeague Player Of the Year, Group Stage MVP, and Top 16 Stage MVP

The EuroLeague Player Of the Year, Group Stage MVP, and Top 16 Stage MVP were awards that were given out by the top-tier level European-wide men's professional club basketball league, the EuroLeague. Under the organizing body of FIBA Europe, the EuroLeague, which was then known as the FIBA European League, awarded each season's best player with the FIBA European League ("EuroLeague") Player of the Year, or FIBA European League ("EuroLeague") POY award. While under the organizing body of EuroLeague Basketball, the EuroLeague initially gave out MVP awards for both the Group Stage and Top 16 Stage of the competition (the first two group stages of the season). Since these stages of the season each only encompassed a portion of the actual EuroLeague regular season, these awards were eventually phased out.

The EuroLeague then created the EuroLeague MVP of the Month award, which was a more fitting and appropriate award to give out instead, for individual stages of the season; along with the EuroLeague MVP award, which is decided by a voting process, and covers the entire EuroLeague regular season, until the playoffs. There is also an MVP award for the EuroLeague Final Four, which is called the EuroLeague Final Four MVP.
