Teams with the smallest point difference in the second qualifying round advanced to the regular season. A draw to determine the groups for the clubs qualified as the best-ranked losing sides will be held in the FIBA Europe office in Munich on 11 October 2018.

Ranked third among the lucky losers, Den Bosch clipped the fourth-ranked Keravnos due to a higher number of points scored, with the teams tied in point differential.{{Cite web|url=http://www.fiba.basketball/europecup/18-19/news/nine-more-teams-from-qualification-round-2-complete-regular-season-field|title=Nine more teams from Qualification Round 2 complete Regular Season field}}
