The club was founded on 17 June 2015 with the aim to save the basketball in the city after the financial problems of the main club CB Lucentum.[1]

Fundación Lucentum made its debut in the 2015–16 LEB Plata season after receiving the spot of CB Lucentum.[2] On 23 December 2018, the club achieved their first title after defeating 86–68 CB Zamora in the Copa LEB Plata, played during the 2018–19 season.
