The 2023–24 Algerian Basketball Super Cup was contested between WO Boufarik, holders of the Super Division champion, and USM Alger, the Algerian Cup champion. The match was played at La Coupole of the Complexe sportif olympique Mohamed Boudiaf in Algiers.[1]
USM Alger qualified for the Super Cup after winning the 53rd edition of the Algerian Cup in July 2024, defeating WO Boufarik 71–69 in the final at the same venue. The victory secured the first Algerian Cup title in the club's history, after previously losing the 1989 final to MC Alger.[1] WO Boufarik entered the match as the 2024 Algerian champions after defeating TRA Draria in the Super Division finals (2–0), winning 83–59 in the first leg and 60–41 in the second. The title ended a drought of more than two decades for the Boufarik-based club. During the 2023–24 season, WO Boufarik had dominated USM Alger in league competition, defeating them three times, including two regular-season matches and one playoff game. However, USM Alger prevailed in the Algerian Cup final, preventing Boufarik from completing the domestic double.[1]
WO Boufarik beat USM Alger with a score of 70–59.[2]
