Didn't the Euroleague say pre-season that if a team doesn't have enough players for a match, it will be defaulted for that match?

Yes

"In the event that any team has less than eight players fit to play due to COVID-19, said team will lose the game 0-20."

 

In the same 2020–21 Euroleague Basketball Special Regulations due to COVID-19 there is also the rule:

_Games that are precluded from taking place as scheduled due to new or existing restrictions being imposed on home or visiting clubs by their domestic authorities will be suspended and rescheduled. In such cases, the game may be relocated to an alternative venue, if necessary.

Any particular game may be suspended a maximum of three times

 

In late afternoon also game between LDLC ASVEL Villeurbanne and Panathinaikos OPAP Athens will not take place, due the multiple players from LDLC ASVEL Villeurbanne have tested positive.

Now we wait the decision by the Disciplinary Judge

 

PS: Round3&4 and there are 3 games cancelled........however a tournament with many 20-0 maybe haven't a sense....

After the decision by EB Disciplinary Judge against Zenit:

 

Spoiler

The Euroleague Basketball Disciplinary Judge has declared that Zenit St. Petersburg loses by the result of zero to twenty (0-20) its Turkish Airlines EuroLeague Regular Season Round 3 and 4 games against TD Systems Baskonia Vitoria-Gasteiz and Valencia Basket, which were scheduled to be played on October 13 and 15, respectively.

 

The EB, the governing body for both the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague and the 7DAYS EuroCup competitions, decided on Wednesday, October 14, to propose a modification to Article 6 of the Special Regulations:

 

Spoiler

Euroleague Basketball will propose a modification of this article to the ECA Shareholders Executive Board and EuroCup Board, aligning the consequences of such a situation to those of games that are prevented from being played due to travel restrictions imposed by local or national authorities.

As a result, teams unable to count on at least eight players to play a game due to COVID-19 positives, would see the relevant game(s) suspended and rescheduled to a later date. Existing rules (maximum of three reschedules for any given game, deadlines to reschedule games, etc.) will mirror those applied to travel restriction situations.

If approved, the modification will apply retroactively to those games that have not been played to date due to this reason, and empower the Euroleague Basketball CEO to reschedule the six games that have not been played (4 EuroLeague and 2 EuroCup) to a future date.

The ECA Shareholders Executive Board confirmed the modification of the Special Regulations that were originally approved by the clubs in September 2020, as proposed by Euroleague Basketball. The modification becomes applicable immediately to both the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague and the 7DAYS EuroCup, asserting their retroactive effect over the seven games that have been affected so far due to COVID-19 positive cases.

The modified regulations will, in essence, mirror the original ones specifying the consequences of teams being prevented to play due to imposed local government travel restrictions. However, in cases where a team does not have eight players who are fit to play due to COVID-19, or the team must quarantine due to positive COVID-19 testing:

- The game can be rescheduled up to three times, if there are available dates.

- In case of no availability of dates or the maximum number of rescheduling’s being reached, the club that caused the original rescheduling will forfeit the game.

- No games will be rescheduled to be played after the following dates:

• EuroLeague Regular Season (April 13, 2021)
• EuroLeague Playoffs (May 5, 2021)

 

The modified Special Regulations will have retroactive effect toward any decisions already applied regarding the 2020–21 season, allowing cancelled games to be rescheduled by the Euroleague Basketball CEO.

 

Matches rescheduled:

 

• LDLC ASVEL Villeurbanne vs Crvena Zvezda mts Belgrade
• Valencia Basket vs Zenit St Petersburg
• LDLC ASVEL Villeurbanne vs Panathinaikos OPAP Athens
• TD Systems Baskonia Vitoria-Gasteiz vs Zenit St Petersburg
• Zenit St Petersburg vs AX Armani Exchange Milan
• ALBA Berlin vs TD Systems Baskonia Vitoria-Gasteiz
• Anadolu Efes Istanbul vs LDLC ASVEL Villeurbanne
