Panathinaikos Basketball Club (el: Παναθηναϊκός ΚΑΕ) is the basketball team of Panathinaikos Sports Club (PAO).

Panathinaikos are one of the most successful basketball team in Greece and one of the best in Europe. Twenty-six national championships, eight Greek Cups, four European Champions' Cups (or Euroleague) and one Inter-continental Cup adorn the team's trophy collection.

Within their 85 years of existence - the basketball department was founded in 1922 - Panathinaikos have written many golden pages in their history. Legends of world baskeball have played with the club (Dominique Wilkins, Byron Scott, Dino Radja, Dejan Bodiroga, Nick Galis, Panagiotis Giannakis, Stojan Vrankovic, Fanis Christodoulou among others). These players have made the name of Panathinaikos one of the most well-known in Europe and the most successful team of the last decade on the European continent (along with Maccabi Tel Aviv) with three Euroleague titles.

The course of Panathinaikos in the European Cups commenced in 1962, in the Champions' Cup of the time. They played against Hapoel Tel Aviv in the first round and were eliminated (72-84, 56-82).

On April 1996 in Paris, Panathinaikos became the first Greek team to win the European Championships, beating FC Barcelona in a unique final tournament, by 67-66. In September of the same year the team also won the Inter-continental cup, prevailing by 2-1 wins over Olympia Venado Tuerto of Argentina (83-89, 83-78, 101-76). In 2000 at Thessaloniki, Panathinaikos were crowned Champions of Europe for the second time, defeating Maccabi by 73-67 in the final. In 2002 in Bologna, Panathinaikos three-peated, beating Kinder Bologna by 89-83 in the final. Their fourth title came in Athens on May 6, 2007, when they defeated CSKA Moscow 93-91. On May 3, 2009, Panathinaikos again defeated CSKA Moscow 73-71 for title number five.

Participations of the team in the Final Four held in Tel-Aviv are also worth mentioning (1994) and in Zaragoza (1995). Other significant successes are: the two participations in the semifinals of the Cup Winners Cup (1969, 1998), reaching the semi-finals of the Champions' Cup in 1972. In 1982, Panathinaikos participated in the finals of the Champions Cup of that time, eliminating CSKA Moscow and Lefski Sofia in the process.
