Meanwhile, Le Mans began its 2007-08 season campaign with a 0-12 record, whilst Dinamo Sassari (2015-16 season), Cibona Zagreb (2010-11), and Ovarense Aerosoles (2000-01) started their seasons with a 0-10 record.

Zalgiris will play the upcoming six games against Panathinaikos OPAP Athens, Fenerbahce Beko Istanbul, FC Barcelona, Bitci Baskonia Vitoria-Gasteiz, CSKA Moscow, and Monaco Basket.
