The club's men's senior team currently plays in the German first division Basketball Bundesliga since its promotion in 2021.

In the 2020–21 season, Heidelberg won its first-ever ProA championship and gained promotion to the first level Basketball Bundesliga (BBL).

As in the promotion season, the goal for the second year was to stay in the league, according to general manager Matthias Lautenschläger.

Albert Kuppe, Phillipp Heyden and Courtney Stockard ended their professional careers.

[3] Kuppe's departure was a surprise, which is why Leon Friederici, who was actually scheduled to leave,[2] returned to the team.

As playmaker he would "create opportunities, especially in transition, after blocks and from isolation" and "play defensively with commitment and passion," said new Heidelberg head coach Joonas Iisalo.

The new recruit Elias Lasisi had already played with the then assistant coach Joonas Iisalo for Crailsheim.

In late December 2022, Heidelberg played against FC Bayern Munich in the nearby SAP Arena (Mannheim), where the team drew a record crow of 10,454 visitors.

For each ticket sold, a donation was made to the Courage Foundation for the support of chronically ill children.
