BC CBet (Lithuanian: Jonavos CBet; English: CBet Jonava) The club was officially founded in 1999, and has been playing in the second-tier Lithuanian basketball league NKL (formerly known as LKAL) since its inception. However, in the 2021-2022 season they will make their debut in the LKL.

History

The first basketball club in Jonava known as "Statyba" was founded in 1969. In 1980, a furniture enterprise started sponsoring the team. At the end of the season, BC Jonava won the Lithuanian second-tier league basketball championship. A decade later, the historic Jonava basketball club ceased to exist, and was replaced by the sports club "Triobet" in 1999.[1]
