Cáceres P. Humanidad had to win in the distance of the Basque Country and the Extremadurans did not fail in Amorebieta to overcome the pressure of their pursuers and be able to remain at the top of the Western Conference. For its part, Palmer Basket Mallorca did not fail at home on the court of a CB Santfeliuenc who could not contain his rival.
Auspicious day for the leaders of both groups who marked a new stage by being able to add positively to their respective trips. because neither Cáceres P. Humanidad nor Palmer Mallorca Palma gave even an iota of ground in their aspirations.

Cáceres P. Humanidad continues to gain competitive weight at the head of the Western Conference after achieving a new prestigious victory on the road. A victory in Amorebieta achieved through tenacity and that has helped the people of Extremadura to be able to maintain their status as leaders. And all of this widened the gap over their pursuers since only Coto Córdoba was able to maintain their winning momentum by beating Insolac Caja 87 on their home court in a weekend in which Cultural y Deportiva Leonesa lost at home to Bueno Arenas Albacete that begins to gain positions in the table. And neither the City of Huelva nor Clínica Ponferrada were able to maintain the dynamics of recent weeks, giving up in two tight finals. Although one of the most emotional duels of the night came from Logroño in the first game without Juan Bernabé and in which the city paid heartfelt tribute to him in a game with a dramatic comeback and a winning triple for those from Logroño.
On the other side of the country, Palmer Basket Mallorca was not going to fail in front of the East either in a duel not without difficulty on the CB Santfeliuenc court and which they knew how to solve without excessive difficulties. A result with which to overcome the pressure of an unstoppable CB Prat in recent weeks and who, on this occasion, beat Class Sant Antoni Ibiza on their track to demonstrate their ambition in the category.
