In the French Leaders Cup, Nanterre also reached the Cup Final, but lost to Le Mans Sarthe Basket. Nanterre also made its debut in the EuroLeague that season.

To start the 2014–15 season, Nanterre won the Match des Champions (French Super Cup). On April 26, 2015, Nanterre won its first European-wide trophy. In the 2015, EuroChallenge Final, it beat Trabzsonspor, 63–64, on a buzzer-beater by T.J. Campbell.^[1]

In February 2016, the team's name was changed from JSF Nanterre, to Nanterre 92, with "92" representing the numeric code of the club's home department of Hauts-de-Seine.^[2]
