History

Dziki were founded in 2017, on the basis of a III Liga team MKS MOS Ochota. In their first season in the II Liga, the team fought to stay in the league. A year later, they advanced to the playoff phase, and in 2020, they took first place in the competition and gained promotion to the Suzuka I Liga.

The goal for the 2022–23 season was promotion to the Polish Basketball League. The team was built based on top league experience and led by coach Krzysztof Szablowski. In the play-off final, they defeated Górnik Wałbrzych 3–0, earning themselves a spot in the Polish top division for the first time in their history.[2]
