LKF Cup was an annual basketball competition for Lithuanian basketball teams. It is organised by Lithuanian Basketball Federation (Lietuvos Krepšinio Federacija - LKF). Before 2007 LKF cup wasn't ran regularly, but since then its finals are organisised every January, February or March.

Between 2007 and 2014 the competition was played between teams from LKL, NKL and RKL. In 2015, the LKF decided to change the competition format and it is played between the eight first qualified teams of the LKL after the first half of the season.

Only three teams (Žalgiris, Lietuvos rytas and Prienai) have won the cup.

The competition was replaced in 2016 by the King Mindaugas Cup.
