The 2016 Eurocup Finals were the concluding two games of the 2015–16 Eurocup season, the 14th season of Europe's secondary club basketball tournament organised by Euroleague Basketball, and the eighth season since it was renamed from the ULEB Cup to the Eurocup. The first leg was played at the Rhénus Sport in Strasbourg, France, on 22 April 2016 and the second leg was played at the Abdi İpekçi Arena in Istanbul, Turkey, on 27 April 2016, between French side Strasbourg and Turkish side Galatasaray Odeabank.

It was the first ever Finals appearance ever of Strasbourg and Galatasaray Odeabank, after Strasbourg never reached a stage further than the quarterfinals in history and Galatasaray Odeabank never reached a stage further than the semifinals in history.

The Rhénus Sport was the first leg venue as Strasbourg venue. In 1981, the arena was the venue of the European Champions Cup Final, in which Maccabi Elite defeated Sinudyne Bologna 80-79. In February 2006, the Davis Cup match between France and Sweden took place in this arena.
