History
The tournament's host team, the senior men's
To date, there have been 32 official Acropolis Tournaments that have been organized by the Hellenic Basketball Federation, plus the unofficial special edition 1991 FIBA Centennial Jubilee Tournament. The Greek national team did not host the 2012 Acropolis Tournament, because it participated in the 2012 FIBA World Olympic qualifying tournament, and failed to qualify for the Olympics that year. There was also no Acropolis Tournament in the years 2014, 2016, 2018 and 2020.
