A new CBA was finally agreed upon by the owners and the players on February 20, 2024, thus setting the stage for the grand return of the FBA for the 2024-25 season, and while a vast majority of players who went abroad during the lockout are expected to return to the league this season, others like Leo Baxter may choose to stay with their new teams from abroad. As it was, the 2024-25 FBA regular season started on October 29, 2024 and ended on April 16, 2025. Here are the final standings of the teams at the end of the regular season.
