Competition format
[edit]18 teams play the regular season. This is a round robin, where each team will play twice against every rival. The champion of the Regular Season is promoted to LEB Oro and the eight next teams join the play-offs. A best-of-three quarterfinal and a Final Four decided the second promoted team.
The last two qualified teams were relegated to LEB Bronce.
If two or more teams have got the same number of winning games, the criteria of tie-breaking are these:
- Head-to-head winning games.
- Head-to-head points difference.
- Total points difference.
