The club was founded a few years ago, as to the 2007/2008 season with Prokom Trefl Sopot or 2008/2009 Asseco Prokom Sopot was played. Due to disagreements in the management decided Ryszard Krauze, entrepreneurs and main sponsor to build his own team in the neighboring city of Gdynia. With the 2009/2010 season now launched two independent teams from the Triple Alliance in the top Polish league - Asseco Prokom Trefl Sopot Gdynia. As the venue for the Hala Sportowo - Widowiskowa Gdynia was selected with 4,334 seats.

Until the 2011/12 season where both teams met in the finals for the first time with each other and with Gdynia 4:3 chose the best-of- seven series for yourself, all derbies from Gdynia were recovered.

Despite dominance in the domestic league, the team rarely comes in European competitions over the preliminaries out. Exception was before the winning streak in the Polish Championship reaching the final match of the FIBA EuroCup Challenge 2003, a now-defunct competition for European clubs that had not achieved participation in three higher-level European club competitions. In the final, was inferior to a point the Greek club Aris Thessaloniki. 2010 reached with the Americans Ronald Burrell and the German international Jan -Hendrik Jagla also known from the German Basketball League quarter-finals in the highest European club competition ULEB Euro League, in which the finalists Olympiakos Piraeus they lost in four games. Reaching the play-off series of the best eight teams in Europe was considered a great success. In particular, U.S. import players use the stage ULEB Euro League at Asseco Prokom, to recommend themselves for well paid contracts in southern European leagues or in Russia. After the quarter-finals in 2010, for example, substitute David Logan in the Spanish ACB league, while Qyntel Woods went to Russia.
