BC Odesa (Ukrainian: баскетбольний клуб "Одеса") is a Ukrainian professional basketball club based in Odesa. The club competed in the Ukrainian Basketball SuperLeague (UBSL).

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. Previously, BIPA Odesa was merged to BC Dynamo Odesa in 2017.
Der größte Erfolg des Teams war der Gewinn der Ukrainischen Basketball Superliga in den Jahren 2002 und 2003. Darüber hinaus gewann das Team zweimal den Ukrainischen Basketballpokal in den Jahren 2001 und 2003.
Zu den bemerkenswertesten Spielern, die für Odessa gespielt haben, gehören Oleksiy Pecherov, Vitaliy Potapenko und Alexander Volkov.
