The league was expanded to 19 teams, record of the league, and it was divided into two groups for the first time in its history.[1] On August 27, 2020, FEB and acb agreed a support plan for the league and intended to alleviate the effects of COVID-19 pandemic, as well as to guarantee the broadcast of all the matches of the league. The total of these grants, therefore, amount to one million euros, which are distributed evenly among the clubs registered in the league for the 2020–21 season.[2]

Format changes

For this season, the league consist of two group phases with two groups of 9 and 10 teams in each phase. At the end of the first phase, the top five teams of each group will join the promotion group and the rest of the teams will join the relegation group. In the second phase, the results of the teams that played in the first phase will sweep to the second phase avoiding to play four times with the same team. At the end of the second phase, the eight top teams of the promotion group will qualify for the promotion playoffs and the last four teams of the relegation group will be relegated to LEB Plata.[3]
