History

Dziki were founded quite recently, in 2017, on the basis of the 3rd league MKS MOS Ochota. In the first season in the 2nd league, 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 Suzuki 1st league.

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 a trusted coach Krzysztof Szablowski. In the play-off final they defeated Górnik Wałbrzych (3–0). This way Dziki earned the spot in the Polish Basketball League for the first time in their history.
