'''BC Odesa''' ({{langx|uk|баскетбольний клуб "Одеса"}}) is a [[Sport in Ukraine|Ukrainian]] professional [[basketball]] club based in [[Odesa]]. The club competed in the [[Ukrainian Basketball SuperLeague]] (UBSL). 

Established in 1992, Odesa played in the SuperLeague for most of its existence until it disappeared in 2016. In 2018, the club was re-founded when it merged with BC Dynamo Odesa.
==History==
BC Odesa was one of the most distinguished basketball clubs in the country and has won the UBSL championship 4 times. It was founded in 1992 under the name '''BIPA-Moda''' after its sponsor company. Following the death of its 1st president [[Arkadiy Tabachnyk]] in 1999, the club became municipal and, hence, changed its name to '''MBC Odesa'''. In 2006, the club turned private again after its purchase by the current president [[Oleh Bychkov]], and its name was changed to the present '''BC Odesa'''. After the 2015–16 season, the club disappeared. However, another club '''[[BIPA Odesa]]''' played in the SuperLeague the following years.

In the summer of 2018, '''BC Dynamo Odesa''', winner of the second-tier division, was renamed and merged to '''BC Odesa'''.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://fbu.ua/news/basketbolniy-klub-dinamo-odesa-zminiv-nazvu|title = Баскетбольний клуб Динамо-Одеса змінив назву}}</ref> Previously, '''[[BIPA Odesa]]''' was merged to '''BC Dynamo Odesa''' in 2017.<ref>{{Cite web|title=БІПА та Динамо-Одеса об'єдналися в одну організацію|url=https://fbu.ua/news/u-odesi-sformovano-novu-basketbolnu-strukturu|access-date=2020-11-26|website=fbu.ua|language=uk}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|title=Павло Вугельман: Одеса отримає нову головну спортивну арену|url=https://fbu.ua/news/pavlo-vugelman-odesa-otrima-novu-golovnu-sportivnu-arenu|access-date=2020-11-26|website=fbu.ua|language=uk}}</ref>
