History
DR Congo joined the FIBA in 1963 and made their first tournament debut twelve years later, during the 1974 AfroBasket. In the following year, they played in the 1975 AfroBasket championship. Congo ended in the fourth place after a 2–3 record. After a 6th place in 1980, the team missed the tournament for the next 27 years.
During AfroBasket 2007, DR Congo returned and finished 15th.
After another 10-year absence, the country played in the AfroBasket 2017 where they reached the quarter-finals after upsetting Nigeria in the group phase.
In August 2022, Jonathan Kuminga joined the Congolese team to become the first National Basketball Association (NBA) player to play for the national team. Kuminga had just won his first NBA championship with the Golden State Warriors.
Laget har deltatt i flere internasjonale turneringer, inkludert afrikanske mesterskap og verdensmesterskapet. Lagets beste plassering i afrikanske mesterskap er tredjeplass i 1975.
