The 2016–17 FIBA Europe Cup was the 2nd season of the FIBA Europe Cup, a European basketball club competition organised by FIBA Europe. The season began on 18 October 2016, with the regular season, and concluded on April 25, 2017, with the second leg of the Finals. Nanterre 92 was crowned FIBA Europe Cup champions after defeating Élan Chalon.
The regular season phase 1 will be joined by 38 teams, 26 will qualify directly and the other 12 will come from the Basketball Champions League qualifying rounds. These teams will be divided into ten groups, seven groups of four teams and three groups of three teams. The two first qualified teams of each group and the four best third-placed teams (two teams from each Conference) will qualify to the regular season phase 2. These teams will be divided into six groups of four teams. The first qualified teams of each group and the best two runners-up of all groups will qualify to the play-offs with the eight teams dropped from the Basketball Champions League regular season.
In the play-offs, the Round of 16 play-offs, the Quarter-Final play-offs, the Semi-Final play-offs and the Final play-offs will be played with a double-leg format.
After the Basketball Champions League expansion, the qualifying rounds were eliminated and the four teams that were going to join them qualified directly to the regular season, being these reduced to 38 teams instead of the 40 initially proposed.
A total of 38 teams will participate in the 2016–17 FIBA Europe Cup.

The draw of the regular season was held on 22 July 2016, at 12:00 CEST, in Freising, Germany. The 38 teams were divided into two conferences according to geographical criteria, each containing five groups:

The matchdays were 19 October, 26 October, 2 November, 9 November, 16 November and 23 November 2016. The top two teams of each group and the four best third-placed teams of all groups (two from each conference) advanced to the second round.
A total of 22 national associations were represented in the regular season. Hubo Limburg United, Basic-Fit Brussels and Peja made their European debut appearances.

- Point differential during the regular season.
- Points scored during the regular season.
- Sum of quotients of points scored and points allowed in each regular season match.
Games against fourth-placed teams are not included in these rankings.
