Greek A2 Basket League seasons

The 2015–16 Greek A2 Basket League was the 30th season of the Greek A2 Basket League, the second-tier level professional club basketball league in Greece. This season was the first season with the participation of 16 teams. It was also the first season where playoff and play out games were held. The winner was Kymis, which got promoted directly to GBL (A1).[1] The second place team was Faros Keratsiniou, but the club didn't accept to play in the top-tier GBL, and it was replaced by the third placed team, Promitheas Patras.[2] In contrast, Evropi Pefkochoriou and Filippos Veroias were relegated to Greek B League (Beta Ethniki) directly, and Peristeri and Panerythraikos were relegated after play out games.
