Format

The finals will be played in February and March 2023 between the top six teams of the regular season, consisting of three play-in games, two best-of-three semifinal series and the best-of-five Grand Final series, where the higher seed hosts the first, third and fifth games.[1][2]

The top two seeds in the regular season will automatically qualify to the semifinals. Teams ranked three to six will compete in the play-in tournament.[3] The third seed will play the fourth seed for third spot and the loser will play the winner of fifth or sixth for the fourth seed.[4] This will be the first season the league will introduce play-in games.[5]
