History

During the decade of the 1970s, Ethnikos played in the Beta Ethniki, and came close to reaching promotion to the top-tier level A Ethniki. The former president of FIBA Europe, George Vassilakopoulos, competed in Ethnikos Piraeus. In the subsequent following years, Ethnikos' standing as a club declined, and it played in the lower minor league Greek divisions.
In recent years, the club was promoted almost every year, as it climbed up to the Greek 2nd Division. Ethnikos was promoted 3 times, in 3 years. In 2014, Ethnikos was promoted to the Greek A2 Basket League, after beating Livadeia in a one off playoff game.
