In the 1996-97 season KB Peja played in the second division, due to problems with the Basketball Federation of Kosovo. In 2003-04, the team didn't compete in any league organized by the Basketball Federation of Kosovo.
In the 2016–17 season, Peja would play in a European competition for the first time, when the team entered the FIBA Europe Cup.
