History
Red Star was the major powerhouse in the early stages of the Yugoslav Championship, winning 15 championships in a row between 1945 and 1960.[1] In 1958 it was the first team to represent Yugoslavia in the newly founded European Cup, reaching the tournament's semifinals.[2]
The team wasn't able to win the national championship between 1964 and 1975, but it emerged in the second half of the 1970s winning six national titles in a row. In 1979 it achieved its greatest success by winning the European Cup beating BSE Budapest in the final by 97-62. This remains as of 2011 the highest scoring in a European Cup / Euroleague final. Red Star was the first of only two teams from Yugoslavia to win the competition.[3]
Red Star again reached the European Cup's final in 1981, losing this time to Daugava Riga. The following years were less successful, and the team had to wait to 1990 to return to the competition, marking its seventh appearance in the semifinals.
During the Yugoslav Wars Red Star was disqualified from the 1993 Euroleague in accordance with the UNSC Resolution 757. The team returned to European competition in 1996 through the second tier Ronchetti Cup. It has since appeared in the Ronchetti Cup and its successor the Eurocup in 1997, 2000, 2003, 2004 and 2009, with modest results.
