KBL has unveiled a commemorative logo to mark the 30th anniversary of professional basketball in Korea.

On the 20th, KBL (Korea Basketball League) officially announced its 30th-anniversary logo, which carries the meaning of honoring the history and tradition of professional basketball over the past three decades and reaffirming its commitment to a new leap forward.

KBL took its first step on February 1, 1997, with the opening game between Anyang SBS and Incheon Daewoo Securities. It will mark its 30th anniversary of establishment on February 1, 2027.

The newly unveiled 30th-anniversary logo was created by reinterpreting the number "30" based on the upward curve embedded in the letter "B," which stands for BASKETBALL in the existing KBL logo. Using a bold size and dynamic lines, it captures KBL's vision of moving powerfully toward a new future while reflecting the tradition and status accumulated over 30 years.

The commemorative logo will be fully attached to the uniforms of all 10 teams' players during the upcoming 2026–2027 season, and an official game ball featuring the 30th-anniversary logo will also be newly produced. In addition, it is planned to be widely used across all KBL official materials and promotional content.

KBL will also prepare a variety of events and contents to commemorate its 30th anniversary. On January 31, 2027, aligned with the founding day of professional basketball, an All-Star Game will be held. The league will publish a 30-year history book covering the entire history of professional basketball and produce a commemorative documentary. Additionally, plans include opening a digital museum, releasing commemorative merchandise, and holding major official events such as Media Day and award ceremonies with grandeur that embodies the symbolism of the 30th anniversary.
