The Dodge City Legend is a professional basketball franchise in the United States Basketball League, a minor league that plays in the spring. The Legend have won three USBL titles, in 2000, its first season, 2003 and in 2005.

Dodge City, Kansas, with a population of just over 20,000, is one of the smallest cities -- if the not the smallest -- in the U.S. with a professional team. Because of this, the Legend also seek to draw fans from surrounding towns, such as Garden City and Liberal. They play their home games at the Dodge City Civic Center.

The Legend's colors are purple, black and silver. The nickname comes from the cowtown history of Dodge City, which has been immortalized in the television program, Gunsmoke.
