Larisa B.C. (Greek: Λάρισα K.A.E.), or Larisa Basket (alternate spelling: Larissa), is a Greek professional basketball club that is located in Larissa, Greece.[2] It is a part of the G.S. Ermis Agias Larisa (Γ.Σ. Ερμής Αγιάς Λάρισα) multi-sports club. The club's full original name was Gymnastikos Syllogos Agias Ermis Larisa (Γυμναστικός Σύλλογος Επαρχίας Αγιάς Ερμής Λάρισα). The club's official emblem is a seal with Hermes (Ermis) on it, one of the Greek gods. The team's colors are white and blue.
The team most recently competed in the Greek Basket League, the top-tier level of Greek basketball. Their highest position in the league's final standings has been the 4th, achieved during the 2021-2022 campaign, under coach Fotis Takianos. The club's professional future has been in disarray since the departure of owner and president Theodoros Rizoulis in the summer of 2022.
