Named after the French Revolution, the club was founded in its current form in 2007, with the merger of Paris Basket Racing, from the city of Paris, and Levallois Sporting Club Basket, from the nearby commune of Levallois-Perret, and started to play with the name of Paris-Levallois Basket.

On 5 July 2017, the club's board of directors agreed to change the name of the club to Levallois Metropolitans.
In the 2022–23 season, French young star Victor Wembanyama joined the team from ASVEL. Wenbanyama was widely projected to be the number one pick in the 2023 NBA draft. In October, the Metropolitans played exhibition games against the NBA G League Ignite in the United States, giving the club international exposure. In the 2023 NBA draft, two of the team's players were selected in the top 10 of the draft, with Victor Wembanyama being selected #1 by the San Antonio Spurs and Bilal Coulibaly being selected seventh overall by the Indiana Pacers and then traded to the Washington Wizards.
