Košarkaški klub FMP (Serbian Cyrillic: Кошаркашки клуб ФMП), commonly referred to as KK FMP Beograd or simply FMP, is a professional men's basketball club based in Belgrade, Serbia. The club was founded in Novi Sad in 1970, and was later relocated to Belgrade. They are currently competing in the ABA League and the Basketball League of Serbia.[1]

History

The club was formed in 1970 as KK Radnički from Novi Sad. In 2009, the club moved to Belgrade and changed its name to KK Radnički Basket.[2] Two years later, the club changed its name to KK Radnički FMP, and in 2013 it was known simply as KK FMP.[1]

Despite the same name, the club is not associated with the old KK FMP, who merged with KK Crvena zvezda in 2011[3] and is registered as KK ILR Železnik since 2015.[4][5]
