In 2002, they joined the Liga Nacional de Baloncesto Profesional (LNBP), where they remained until 2007. That year, before the new season began, they merged with the Barreteros de Zacatecas to form Unión Zacatecas.[3] Their return to the LNBP was announced in 2011, but it ultimately did not happen. They finally announced their return in the 2025 season taking the spot of Plateros de Fresnillo.[4][5]
