The Soviet Union women's national basketball team (Russian: Сбо́рная СССР по баскетболу, romanized: sbórnaya SSSR po basketbolu) was the women's basketball side that represented the Soviet Union in international competitions.[1] After the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991, the successor countries all set up their own national teams.
