Overview

Venezia participates to the 2018-19 edition of the Lega Basket Serie A as the defending champions, after having won in the 2018-19 season.

They won the Italian Cup and they managed to qualify to the playoffs of the EuroCup Basketball.

Unfortunately, though, the 2019-20 season was hit by the coronavirus pandemic that compelled the federation to suspend and later cancel the competition without assigning the title to anyone.[1] Virtus Bologna ended the championship in 1st position. Followed also the early termination of the EuroCup season where Bologna had reached the quarter-finals and Venezia was the only Italian team at winning something, the Italian Cup.
