This was planned to be succeeded by funding and developing young players and a promotion of the first team to professional basketball leagues in the medium run.

[4] In the 2021/22 ProB season, the ART Giants finished the playoffs in the second place and were promoted to the second tier 2nd Bundesliga ProA.

This promotion came along with moving to the Castello Düsseldorf, instead of the Comenius Gymnasium Gym, where the club formerly played its home games.

The playing operations of the second-division team were transferred to ART Giants Düsseldorf Spielbetriebs GmbH in 2023, with Thilo von Tongelen taking over the management.

After a good start into the season, but several losses before the end of the year 2023, the ART Giants parted ways with Florian Flabb [6] and signed Andaç Yapicier as his successor.
