Alba Berlin

Also known as the Albatrosse, Berlin's basketball club is Germany's most successful, and has the largest fanbase; home matches easily attract 10,000 spectators. Since going pro in 1991, Alba has won the German League eight times and the German Cup seven times. Alba has started 2019 strongly, with a few great wins pocketed by the occasional close loss. The league has been overshadowed by the club's charge to the Eurocup final (the first German side to make it this far), with the three-match showdown against Valencia taking place in April.
