Qualified teams
The top eight ranking teams participated after the first half of the 2020–21 ACB regular season once Real Madrid has already mathematically guaranteed its host team status and its presence in the top eight.[3]
Given the uncertainty generated by the COVID-19 pandemic, the ACB agreed that to use the win percentage over the total number of games played by each team as the first criterion to decide the qualification for the Copa del Rey, thus avoiding harming any club if it cannot play all their matches before the January 10 deadline.[3]
The tiebreaker criteria in the qualification for the Copa del Rey is the following:[3]
- Best win percentage over the total number of games played by each team.
- If the tie is not resolved, the greater total difference between points for and against taking into account all the games played in the regular season.
- If the tie is not resolved, the sum of the quotients of points in favor and against in each of the disputed matches were applied to the teams that remain tied, with the highest having it being the qualified team.

(H) Hosts
Venue
On December 15, 2020, ACB selected and announced Madrid to host the Copa del Rey in February 2021.[1] The former building, which was built in 1960, was destroyed by a fire in 2001. Architects Enrique Hermoso and Paloma Huidobro projected a High-Tech style new arena that was built at the same location between 2002 and 2005. The arena hosted two major international basketball events in the first decade of the 21st century - the knockout stage of EuroBasket 2007 and the 2008 Euroleague Final Four. It also hosted the Copa del Rey in 2006, 2009, 2011 and 2019. The arena was the finals venue for the 2014 FIBA Basketball World Cup and the 2015 Euroleague Final Four.
