Conference A: Egües and Gijón strike first
Results and Statistics AA Group AB Group
Group AA is led by the Castillo de Gorraiz Valle de Egües. The Navarrese pulled their defense to defeat Tabirako Baque (77-43) and become one of the contenders in the open Conference A. The arrival of veteran players with experience in higher leagues such as Marcos Portález (15 points), Pablo Fernández (14) and Alex Calvo (10) will be fundamental. In Group AB, in the absence of the Oposita Marín Ence Peixegalego match, the classification is led by Círculo Gijón Noega Baloncesto, which reached 111 points on its visit to Porriño. 22 points for Lance Paul, 18 for Yoeri Hoexum and 15 for captain Samuel Barros.
Conference B: Favorites show their credentials
Results and Statistics Group BA BB Group
Aridane and Real Madrid, two of the teams that dominated Conference B last season, are the first leaders of what has just begun. The victory of the Canaries was surprising due to its forcefulness against a prestigious rival such as Lujisa Guadalajara Basket (82-53). The Alcarreños left the match very early due to the success of Kilian Riverol (18 points), Pablo Martínez (13) and Álvaro Castillo (13). The Madrid talents won decisively (41-93) against Tobarra CB with 3 points from Gunars Grinvalds, 17 from Andrej Bjelic and 15 from Gildas Giménez.

In the other group, Ática Sevilla CB Coria confirms the good feelings of the preseason, which defeated Baublock Gymnástica (65-88) in a match in which its great reference stood out, Joaquín Cebolla (23 points) who continues to grow in Third FEB.
