Montenegrin Cup (2006–present)

Except Montenegrin Basketball League as a top-tier league competition, after the independence, the Basketball Federation of Montenegro established Montenegrin Cup as a second elite national tournament. Inaugural season of Montenegrin Cup was 2006-07, and by now all the titles are won by Budućnost, except the season 2012-13, when KK Sutjeska surprisingly won the title in Montenegrin Derby.

Montenegro Cup är en årlig basketturnering för herrlag i Montenegro, arrangerad av Montenegros basketförbund. Turneringen avgörs med ett slutspelssystem, med de bästa lagen från den montenegrinska basketligan. Det vinnande laget får titeln Montenegros cupmästare och kvalificerar sig för FIBA Europe Cup.

Turneringen har anordnats sedan 2007, då det montenegrinska basketförbundet bildades efter landets självständighet från Serbien och Montenegro. Den första turneringen vanns av Budućnost Podgorica, som sedan dess har vunnit de flesta titlarna.

Montenegro Cup är en viktig händelse i den montenegrinska basketkalendern och lockar stort intresse från fans och media. Turneringen ger också unga spelare en chans att visa upp sina talanger och konkurrera mot de bästa lagen i landet.
