2018 ACB Playoffs

The 2018 ACB Playoffs, also known as 2018 Liga Endesa Playoffs for sponsorship reasons, was the postseason tournament of the ACB's 2017–18 season, which began September 29, 2017. The playoffs started on 27 May 2018 and ended on 19 June 2018 with the Finals.

Valencia Basket was the defending champion, but was defeated in quarterfinals by Herbalife Gran Canaria, who achieved qualification to the EuroLeague for the first time ever, but was defeated in semifinals by Real Madrid who won their 34th title after defeating Kirolbet Baskonia in finals.

At the end of the regular season, the eight teams with the most wins qualify for the playoffs. The seedings are based on each team's record.

The bracket is fixed; there is no reseeding. The quarterfinals are best-of-three series; the team that wins two games advances to the next round. This round is in a 1–1–1 format. From the semifinals onward, the rounds are best-of-five series; the team that wins three games advances to the next round. These rounds, including the Finals, are in a 2–2–1 format. Home court advantage in any round belong to the higher-seeded team.

On 8 April 2018, Real Madrid became the first team to clinch a playoff spot.
