1970–71 Serie A (basketball)

The 1970–71 Serie A basketball championship was the 48th season of the Serie A, the highest professional basketball league in Italy. The regular season ran from 18 October 1970 to 28 March 1971, twelve teams played 22 games each. As both Ignis Varese and Simmenthal Milano were tied first with the same head-to-head record (having only lost once apiece, to each other) a single playoff game decided the title, the third ever played between the two squads (one on-the-court win per side, respectively in 1962 and 1966). Varese won the game played in Rome to earn their third straight championship, fifth overall (and the single spot in the European Champions Cup).
