BC Prienai played in EuroCup 2011–12 with moderate success; the team won 3 games out of 6, but nonetheless failed to qualify for the next stage.
In December 2017, in a highly publicized move, Vytautas signed American basketball players and brothers LaMelo and LiAngelo Ball.
The club took seventh place that season as they lost first round of LKL playoffs to Lithuanian powerhouse Žalgiris Kaunas.
[11] The third game took place in Prienai where Rūdupis won a thriller 84–83,[12] thus winning the series 3–0 and becoming Lithuanian Basketball League bronze medalists for the first time in the club's history.
Prienai finished second in the LKL regular season, which even included a blowout win against Žalgiris Kaunas 101–83 at home.
The team, having lost their main sponsor, longtime coach and much of the previous season's roster, played poorly.
Because of poor play, the team failed to qualify for the LKF Cup, losing it to Žalgiris Kaunas after their successful previous two seasons.
It was later corrected that the name will be BC Vytautas and that the club is going to be shared with the neighboring city of Birštonas, which hopefully would also expand the fanbase.
[14] In this off-season BC Vytautas brought back former players Povilas Butkevičius, Vaidas Čepukaitis and Laimonas Kisielius, also resigning Prienai natives Domantas Šeškus, Paulius Ivanauskas and bringing in major reinforcement with Šarūnas Vasiliauskas, Vilmantas Dilys, Vytautas Šulskis, Gytis Sirutavičius.
On 30 December 2015, Prienai native Edvinas Šeškus was cleared to play for Vytautas, joining his father the head coach and his older brother Domantas.
[16] However, on 11 December 2017, with the help of 21 year old Communications Manager Erikas Kirvelaitis, the team signed LiAngelo and LaMelo Ball, the younger brothers of then Los Angeles Laker player Lonzo Ball, both of whom reportedly agreed to join the team in the beginning of January 2018.
[18] In early January 2018, Vytautas pulled out of the Baltic Basketball League season, instead hosting the newly formed Big Baller Brand Challenge Games to give the Ball brothers more playing time against weaker teams, most of which played in lower leagues.
[20] The news would be announced with the company helping pay off the team's debts they accrued previously, which amounted to 100,000 Euros.
By the end of February, Vytautas announced that it would play in another exhibition event sponsored by Ball's company, known the Big Baller Brand International Tournament, a round-robin competition featuring three European teams outside of Lithuania.
Vytautas would also play exhibition games against the youth squad for the Chinese Guangdong Southern Tigers in Lithuania and the British London Lions in England on March 27 and April 2 respectively.
However, on 17 July, the league announced that Vytautas would participate in the new season after Vytis Šakiai from the NKL did not meet the promotional requirements.
[27] A press statement from the team in August 2018 revealed that during their time with the club, the Ball family "started destroying the club" through means like not paying the prize money for the Big Baller Brand's tournament winners, withdrawing financial support, and taking back shooting machines that were presented to the team as gifts.
[28] However, despite no longer having Vytautas as a sponsor for the team, they look to survive by finding players with great discipline and personalities and giving priority to those professionals.
The team also signed small forward Austin Arians and Maverick Morgan, who had solid seasons in Ukraine and Poland.
Just before the season started, SkyCop signed former longtime BC Rytas player and 2-time Euroleague champion Martynas Gecevičius to a contract.
In the first game of the season in the LKL, SkyCop faced BC Lietkabelis, one of the top teams, and won in dominating fashion 93–78.
Former BC Nevėžis leader Malcolm Grant was signed at the end of January, while Lee Jr. was released during February.
In the decisive match, SkyCop fought hard, before falling 71:77 in Klaipėda, losing the series 1:2 and ending the season.
Only Mindaugas Lukauskis, Ernestas Mankauskas and assistant coach Marius Leonavičius remained on the team from the previous season.
Birutis won the MVP in the LKL in the month of February, and also earned an invite for the Lithuanian national basketball team.
CBet, even with all their problems, still gave the best fight they could give against a much stronger BC Juventus team in the LKL playoffs, losing the series 0–2.
However, a disastrous 0–11 start in the LKL, and a poor finish in the King Mindaugas Cup, resulting in Labas Gas not even qualifying for the playoffs, resulted in assistant Vidas Ginevičius taking over as interim head coach in December by replacing Leonavičius, before Tomas Gaidamavičius, who recently departed from Neptūnas Klaipėda, was signed as the new head coach for the team.
The team's fortunes didn't really improve - despite great play from players like Sargiūnas and Ivanauskas, Labas GAS finished the season in last place in the LKL, with a 3-27 record, though winning two memorable games against BC Juventus during the season, and having many great performances against the leading LKL teams.
[31] In July 2023, the club declared bankruptcy and ceased all operations, ending a long and successful chapter in Lithuanian basketball.
[37][38][39] In January 2018, weeks after Vytautas signed American brothers LaMelo and LiAngelo Ball, their father's sports apparel company Big Baller Brand was named an official team sponsor.
