Kyiv-Basket (Ukrainian: КСЛІ-Київ-Баскет) is an Ukrainian basketball club based in Kiev. Originally founded in 1992 and refounded in 2017, the team plays in the Ukrainian Basketball SuperLeague (UBL).[1] The re-established club made its debut in the Ukrainian Basketball SuperLeague in the 2018–19 season. It became the second club from Kiev in the UBL, next to Budivelnyk.

History

The club was founded in 1992 as Maccabi-Dandy (Ukrainian: Маккаби-Денди) by politician and businessman Mykhailo Brodskyy. The team won several trophies in Ukraine. In 1998, the team ceased to exist because of financial problems.

In November 2017, the club had a revival as a new team was established. The new logo of the team, featuring a bee, was revealed while it was announced that the club would have a women's team and two men's team in the 2017–18 season. The new home arena of the team was the Meridian Sports Complex.[2]
