History

The team's first head coach was Chris Terrell of Southern California; former coach of Mexico's LNBP.
Their flagship players were streetball veteran Taurian Fontenette, better known as "Mr. 720" and "The Air Up There", and NBA veteran Anthony "Pig" Miller. Other players included Dallas native Jonathan Walker.
The team took "a momentary step back from operations" in order to reorganize. They announced their intention to resume play with a home game on January 2, 2010. Later in January 2010, the team announced it was ceasing operations for the remainder of the 2009–2010 season, refunding tickets, and regrouping to return for the 2010–11 season.
