Santos de San Luis

They started in 1969, when entrepreneurs from San Luis Potosí decided to create a basketball team, to participate in the Circuito Mexicano de Básquetbol (CIMEBA) and compete against the best teams in the country.

Their beginning was rather shaky, but shortly thereafter they found a winning strategy and gameplay, which was then seen in their results.

The team was a member of CIMEBA and was always among the best teams, and in the 1971-1972 season achieved first place nationally. They repeated first place in 1980 and then again in 1988. In 1980, after the season finished, three players were selected to be part of the national team.

The team's most important achievement was in 2004 in the LNBP when they were crowned after winning against the Halcones UV Xalapa and took the trophy back to San Luis Potosí. Another memorable match was away from home court in 2004, between Los Santos Reales and Fuerza Regia, the latter having Dennis Rodman[1] among its lineup. The Santos Reales won [95-84].[2] This caused an uproar among the Fuerza Regia fans complaining that Dennis Rodman's play time was a measly 6 minutes.

Currently the team no longer exists, but there remains a possibility of the franchise returning with new administration.
