'''Košarkaški klub Cibona''', commonly referred to as '''Cibona Zagreb''' or simply '''Cibona''', is a men's professional [[basketball]] [[sports club|club]] based in [[Zagreb]], [[Croatia]]. The club is a founding member and shareholder of the [[ABA League JTD|Adriatic Basketball Association]],<ref>{{cite web |title=Company registration info: ABA LIGA j.t.d. |url=https://www.aba-liga.com/companyinfo.php |website=aba-liga.com |access-date=30 July 2019}}</ref> and competes in the [[ABA League Second Division|ABA League 2]] and the [[HT Premijer liga|Croatian League]].

==History==
<!-- Deleted image removed: [[File:KK Cibona Zagreb.svg|220px|thumbnail|right|The Cibona emblem]] -->

===Formation and early years===
Cibona's history dates to late autumn of 1945 when '''Sloboda''' (''Freedom'') was founded as a sports society of bank workers, craftsmen, traders, and clerks. On April 24, 1946, thanks to basketball enthusiast Branimir Volfer and his friends Ljubo Prosen and Joso Miloš, basketball section of Sloboda, the predecessor of today's Cibona, was formed. Its first game was against local rival Slavija on May 7, 1946. Sloboda did not last too long under that name as in November 1946, it merged with Tekstilac, Amater and Grafičar into '''Sportsko društvo Zagreb''' (''Sports Society Zagreb''). Name changing continued through the next four years. In late 1948 it was known as '''Vihor''' (''Vortex'') and already in 1949 as '''Polet''' (''Elan''). Finally, in June 1950, the club changed the name to '''Lokomotiva''' (''Locomotive'') and that name is going to stick for the next 25 years. Lokomotiva competed in [[YUBA Liga|Yugoslav top division]] since 1951, with only two years (1952 and 1960) spent in the second division.

===First trophies===
Lokomotiva's first major trophy came in 1969, when they won the [[Yugoslav Basketball Cup|Yugoslav Cup]], led by legendary [[Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame|Hall of Famer]] [[Mirko Novosel]]. The final game against [[KK Olimpija|AŠK Olimpija]] was played in Lokomotiva's new basketball hall "Kutija šibica" (literally meaning ''Matchbox''). Led by phenomenal trio Većeslav Kavedžija, [[Nikola Plećaš]] and Milivoj Omašić, Lokomotiva won the game 78:77.

Their first European trophy came in 1972 when Lokomotiva won the premier edition of [[FIBA Korać Cup]]. Their opponent in finals was [[OKK Beograd]] and the first game was played in [[Belgrade]]. OKK Beograd won the first game 83:71 but in a return match Lokomotiva, led by great [[Nikola Plećaš]] (nicknamed ''Sveti Nikola'') who scored 40 points, trashed the Belgrade side by 94–73.

===Cibona's glory years===
[[File:Dres Nakic-Petrovic-Knego.jpg|thumb|220px|Nakić, D. Petrović & Knego's jerseys hanging in the rafters of the Dražen Petrović Basketball Hall]]
[[File:Dražen Petrović Basketball Hall.jpg|thumb|240px|[[Dražen Petrović Basketball Hall]]]]

In November 1975, the basketball club split away from the Lokomotiva sports society and came under the direct control of the municipal authorities of the city of Zagreb. Politicians such as [[Slavko Šajber]] became very influential in the club during this period and set about getting the club some financial support. In that regard, the club's main sponsors became four [[Socialist Republic of Croatia|SR Croatia]]-based food industry giants (all of them state-owned at the time): [[Kraš]], [[Franck (company)|Franck]], [[Badel 1862|Badel]] and Voće. The club took the name '''Cibona''', taken from the [[Latin language|Latin]] ''cibus bonus'', which translates to ''good food''.

For the first trophy under the new name Cibona, they had to wait until 1980, when they won the [[Yugoslav Basketball Cup|Yugoslav Cup]]. The Final match was played in [[Borovo, Croatia|Borovo]], and Cibona's opponent was mighty [[KK Bosna|Bosna]], led by [[Bogdan Tanjević]] on the bench, and [[Mirza Delibašić]] on the court. But Cibona, led by impressive [[Andro Knego]], managed to beat them 68:62. This trophy marked the beginning of Cibona's golden era, influenced by two great basketball players and [[Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame|Hall of Famers]] – [[Krešimir Ćosić]] and [[Dražen Petrović]]. Between 1980 and 1988, Cibona won 14 major trophies: 3 [[Yugoslav Basketball League|Yugoslav League]] championships (1982, 1984, 1985), 7 [[Yugoslav Basketball Cup|Yugoslav Cup]]s (1980, 1981, 1982, 1983, 1985, 1986, 1988), 2 [[Euroleague Basketball|FIBA European Champions Cup]]s (1985, 1986), and 2 [[FIBA Saporta Cup|Cup Winners' Cup]]s (1982, 1987).

At the beginning of the war in the Former Yugoslavia in 1991, the team was forced to emigrate in order to play their games, and in an area with the minimum guarantees required by FIBA. For this reason, the club played in Spain for two years (seasons 1991–92 and 1992–93), specifically in [[Puerto Real]] (Cádiz).

===Croatian powerhouse===
In independent Croatia, Cibona became a dominant force strongly backed both politically and economically. The crisis of traditionally powerful Dalmatian clubs [[KK Split|Split]], [[KK Zadar|Zadar]] and [[KK Šibenik|Šibenik]] also came in hand and Cibona won 11 national titles in a row (from 1992 to 2002). They were also regular [[Euroleague Basketball|Euroleague]] participant, reaching quarterfinals in 1996/97 and [[1999–2000 FIBA Euroleague|1999/00]].

Cibona's dominance in the national championship was broken in 2003 when [[KK Split|Split CO]] led by coach [[Petar Skansi]], legendary [[Dino Rađa]] and revived talent [[Josip Sesar]] won the championship. Cibona regained the title next season but was beaten in finals by [[KK Zadar|Zadar]] season after. In 2005–06 and 2006–07 Cibona won championships beating Zadar in the final series twice but then shockingly missed the final series in 2007/08 after Split eliminated them in semifinal series.

In 2001 regional basketball league called [[ABA League|Adriatic League]] was formed and Cibona took part in it. After disappointing first and second season, Cibona hosted Final Four and reached the final game in [[2003–04 ABA Goodyear League|2003/04]] but was defeated on the home court by [[KK FMP|FMP Reflex]].

===Recent seasons===
Recent seasons have been a mixture of success and failure for Cibona.

In national championship, Cibona won four out of five recent league titles but this dominance is seriously put on test by the rise of [[Atlantic Grupa|large company]] backed [[KK Cedevita|Cedevita]].

In European competitions, Cibona lost its Euroleague license for the [[2011–12 Euroleague|2011/12]] season after competing in Euroleague since its formation. During [[2011–12 Eurocup Basketball|2011/12]] and [[2012–13 Eurocup Basketball|2012/13]] seasons Cibona competed in [[Eurocup Basketball|Eurocup]] but failed to win any game.

In regional ABA League Cibona had a great [[2009–10 ABA NLB League|2009/10]] season. Cibona entered the Final four held in [[Arena Zagreb]] as a top-seeded team. After beating [[KK Olimpija|Union Olimpija]] in semifinals, Cibona faced [[KK Partizan|Partizan]] in the final game. Partizan won the title thanks to an off-the-glass three-pointer by [[Dušan Kecman]] from half-court at the buzzer, bringing the celebration of Cibona players and staff (who already invaded the floor as [[Bojan Bogdanović]] scored a corner three-pointer for Cibona with just 0.6 seconds left on the clock) to an abrupt end. The final score was 75–74 and Cibona once again didn't manage to win a title at the home court. The next three seasons in the regional league were disappointing for Cibona, finishing 12th, 7th, and 11th.

In the 2013–14 season, under head coach [[Slaven Rimac]], Cibona won the [[2013–14 ABA League|ABA League]] championship, despite huge financial problems the club was facing.<ref>{{cite news|title=CEDEVITA – CIBONA 59-72 Briljantni Šarić srušio Cedevitu i odveo Cibonu do prvog trofeja u regionalnoj ABA ligi!|url=http://www.jutarnji.hr/cedevita---cibona-tko-ce-u-zagreb-donijeti-najveci-kosarkaski-trofej-u-posljednjih-27-godina-/1186875/|access-date=8 October 2014|work=jutarnji.hr|language=hr}}</ref> As a champion of the league, Cibona had direct spot in the [[2014–15 Euroleague|Euroleague]], but withdrew from it in order to stabilize financially.<ref>{{cite news|title=Zvezda direktno u Evroligi?|url=http://www.b92.net/sport/kosarka/vesti.php?yyyy=2014&mm=06&dd=17&nav_id=862763|access-date=8 October 2014|work=b92.net|language=sr}}</ref> Eventually, [[KK Crvena zvezda|Crvena Zvezda]], as third in the standings, took its spot in the Euroleague.<ref>{{cite news|title=Cibona odustala, Zvezda u Evroligi!|url=http://www.b92.net/sport/kosarka/vesti.php?yyyy=2014&mm=06&dd=18&nav_id=863583|access-date=8 October 2014|work=b92.net|language=sr}}</ref>
