The 2018 VTB United League Final Four was the 4th final four tournament of the VTB United League, a regional European club basketball competition. The tournament is held in the VTB Ice Palace in Moscow, Russia.[1] The four winners of the play-offs during the 2017–18 VTB United League qualified for the Final Four. The tournament will be hosted between 8 June and 10 June 2018.[2]
