The EuroLeague Basketball Legend Award is an award that is given by the Euroleague Basketball Company, the organizer of the EuroLeague, which is the top-tier professional basketball competition in Europe. It is awarded only to a very distinct and small group of the very biggest EuroLeague stars, which are honored from time to time, for their outstanding playing careers in the league. To which, the EuroLeague's organizing body, the Euroleague Basketball Company, sees fit to officially designate them as "EuroLeague Legends".
Players can be officially designated as EuroLeague Legends while they are still actively playing, or after they have retired. All players that have played in the EuroLeague are eligible for the EuroLeague Legend designation. Currently, the EuroLeague Legend Award has only been given to five players.
