SINGAPORE (Singapore) - The most successful club out of the six is ready to add another piece of silverware to their trophy cabinet.
Flamengo are the two-time FIBA Intercontinental Cup champions, lifting the title in 2014 and 2022, while also playing the title game in 2019.
The Brazilian giants defeated Maccabi Tel Aviv across two games in 2014, were edged out by AEK from Athens five years later, despite enjoying the home court advantage in Rio de Janeiro, and then finished on top of the podium in 2022 again, taking down the Spanish side Hereda San Pablo Burgos in the Final in Cairo, Egypt.
Aside from being successful on a global stage, Flamengo are the record holders with three Basketball Champions League Americas titles to their name, including the most recent one in 2025, and if you scratch beneath the surface, you’ll find one more South American Championship of Champions Clubs title from 1953 and one FIBA South American League, won in 2009.
The scarlet-black fans are used to winning and have witnessed an incredible 49 state championships in Rio de Janeiro and seven Brazilian NBB League trophies.
Just by listing all these accolades, you get a picture of how big a club they really are.
They arrive in Singapore ready to repeat what their compatriots did in 2023. Sesi Franca made a buzzer-beating shot to win the first FIBA Intercontinental Cup held in Singapore, Flamengo will try to copy-paste that performance now.
