Format changes

On 2 June 2018, the General Assembly of the Spanish Basketball Federation agreed some changes in the competition format:[1]

  • The competition will be expanded to 24 teams, divided into two groups of twelve by economical and geographical criteria. The top six teams of each group will join the group A1 for the promotion and the bottom six, the group A2 for avoiding relegation.
  • Three teams will be promoted to LEB Oro (the winner of the group A1 and the two playoffs winners) and six relegated to Liga EBA.
  • Four teams will join the playoffs for two more spots, decided by two-legged series.

Teams
