The 2019–20 Slovenian Basketball League, also known as Liga Nova KBM due to sponsorship reasons was the 29th season of the Premier A Slovenian Basketball League. KK Koper Primorska are the defending champions.

On 12 March 2020, the Basketball Federation of Slovenia temporarily suspended its competitions due to the COVID-19 pandemic. On 20 March, the Basketball Federation canceled definitely its competitions due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[1]

Koper Primorska was the defending champion and as a consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Basketball Federation decided not to recognize any team as the champion for the season.
