On January 28, 2021, Eric Behrens was announced as the head coach. Ryan Stubbe was named the general manager, while Agau was the director of basketball operations. It was announced on March 15, 2021, that the team would play its home games at Millard North High School and the season opener was on April 9 against the Enid Outlaws.

The team's initial roster featured Thurman, SWAC player of the year Devonte Patterson, former Mississippi State player Craig Sword, as well as several local Omaha players. Omaha's Finest reached the playoffs in their first season before losing to Enid.
