JuveCaserta Basket (also spelled Juve Caserta Basket), also known for sponsorship reasons as Pepsi Caserta is an Italian professional basketball team from the town of Caserta.

In 2007/08 season it will play in the Italian LegADue (also known as Serie A2, second division of Italian professional basketball).

The original Juve Caserta club has been established in 1951. It has won the Italian Championship in the 1990/91 season, played in the finals in 1985/86 and 1986/87 seasons, won the Italian Cup (1987/88), played in the Italian Cup final (1988/89) and played in the Korać Cup final in the 1985/86 season and European Cup Winners' Cup final in the 1988/89 season. Due to sponsorship deals, it has also been known as Juventus Caserta (1975-76, 1978-79), Il Diario Caserta (1979-80), Latte Matese Caserta (1980-82), Indesit Caserta (1982-85), Mobilgirgi Caserta (1985-87), Snaidero Caserta (1987-89), Phonola Caserta (1989-93) and Onyx Caserta (1993-94). ^[1].

Following the 1997/98 season, the club went bankrupt. In 2004, two lower-level Caserta-based teams merged under the name of JuveCaserta. The best result for this new team so far has been 3rd place in LegADue in the 2006/07 season.
