On December 6, 2020, Evelyn Magley, CEO of The Basketball League (TBL), stated that Salem, Oregon, was approved as a basketball franchise with Jason Conrad the inaugural team owner. The Capitals opted to sit out the 2021 season due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

On March 4, 2022, the team's inaugural season began with a 116-100 win over the Vancouver Volcanoes. They went on to win their next seven consecutive games before a 127-125 loss to the California Sea-Kings on April 1. They finished the regular-season with a record of 20-7, good for third place in the West Conference.
