The ProB is currently the third highest division in club basketball for men in Germany . Together with the higher-class ProA , it forms the 2nd basketball league , both play groups are operated by the 2nd basketball league GmbH.

history

From the 2007/2008 season onwards, the ProB replaced the previous two-pronged 2. Basketball Bundesliga , which was divided into north and south. Together with its "big brother" ProA, it formed the 2nd basketball league. The division of the teams into the two hierarchically ordered relays was carried out according to a key that took into account the final placements of the three previous seasons.

Since the 2010/2011 season, the ProB has been divided into the two play groups North and South. The ProB thus corresponds to a two-pronged third-highest national league. Nicolas Grundmann was managing director of the 2nd Bundesliga until 2013 , and Daniel Müller was his successor.

After the basketball academy Weser-Ems / Oldenburger Turnerbund (also abbreviated to BAWE OTB ) as a reserve of the first division club EWE Baskets Oldenburg, after their championship in 2014 , they waived promotion, they were the first team to win a second ProB championship and their title in 2015 defend directly.

In February 2018, the Barmer health insurance company took over the naming rights to the 2nd basketball league. In mid-February 2019, Müller announced that he would be leaving his position as managing director at the end of the 2018/19 season. Christian Krings became his successor on August 1, 2019.
