Košarkaški klub Cibona Zagreb (English: Cibona Zagreb Basketball Club) is a basketball club based in Zagreb, Croatia. It competes in the Croatian League and the Adriatic League, and is a regular participant in the Euroleague. The most successful basketball club in Croatia, Cibona was founded in 1946 as Sloboda (Freedom). In the years that followed, the club was during various periods known as SD Zagreb (Sports Community Zagreb), Vihor (Whirlwind), Polet (Elan) and Lokomotiva (Locomotive). The name Lokomotiva was in use for 25 years. In November 1975, the basketball club split away from the Lokomotiva sports society. The club's main sponsors became the four Croatia-based food industry giants (all of them state-owned at the time): Kraš, Franck, Badel and Voće. The club took the name Cibona, taken from the Latin cibus bonus, which translates to good food.
