[edit]Season summary
[edit]On March 10, 2020, the Government of Spain decreed that all games would be played behind closed doors due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[7] On March 12, 2020, the Spanish Basketball Federation postponed all the games of the next two weeks.[8][9] On March 18, 2020, the Spanish Basketball Federation extended the postponement of the games until March 29 due to the state of alarm.[10] On March 25, 2020, the Spanish Basketball Federation extended the postponement of the games until April 12 due to the extension of state of alarm.[11]
On May 8, 2020, the Spanish Basketball Federation finished prematurely the regular season due to force majeure with the following decisions:[12]
- Relegations to Liga EBA were revoked.
- Promotions to LEB Oro remained. Likewise, the promotions from Liga EBA remained, although, due to exceptional circumstances, the Spanish Basketball Federation reserved the right to expand the league to 28 teams in the next season, if necessary.
- The top team from Group A1 as of March 8 would promote directly to LEB Oro.
- Promotion playoffs would be played, as long as, on May 25, the Spanish Basketball Federation had the confirmation that it could be played before June 30, setting the health of the players as an absolute priority, and provided that it was certain that health authorities and clubs could comply with approved health protocols.
- Promotion playoffs would be as follows:
- One game would be played between the 5th and 6th qualified teams of the Group A1 as of March 8. The winner of the game would play a game against the 2nd qualified team of the Group A1 as of March 8, and the winner of this game would promote directly to LEB Oro.
- One game would be played between the 3rd and 4th qualified teams of the Group A1 as of March 8. The winner would promote directly to LEB Oro.
- If the sanitary conditions would make it impossible to play the promotion playoffs, the three top teams from Group A1 as of March 8 would promote to LEB Oro.
On May 25, 2020, the Spanish Basketball Federation cancelled the promotion playoffs and approved the promotions to LEB Oro of the three top teams.[13]
