The Soviet Union men's national under-18 and under-19 basketball team was a men's junior national basketball team of the Soviet Union. It represented the country in international under-18 and under-19 (under age 18 and under age 19) basketball competitions,[1] until the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991. In 1992, CIS men's national under-18 basketball team represented the Commonwealth of Independent States in international under-18 competitions.[2] After 1992, the successor countries all set up their own national teams.
