Team information[edit]

Champion of last season Knet Rioja and playoffs winner Iberostar Bàsquet Mallorca were promoted to LEB Oro. Fundación Adepal Alcázar and Aguas de Sousas Ourense were relegated from LEB Oro to LEB Plata. Adepal resigned to its spot and was dissolved.

Aurteneche Maquinaria, Gandía Bàsquet, Platja de Palma and Eninter CB Santfeliuenc were the Liga EBA playoffs winners and promoted to LEB Plata, but Palma and Santfeliuenc refused to play in this league and stayed in Liga EBA. Lan Mobel ISB was also relegated to Liga EBA from LEB Plata.

By July 12, only seven teams were confirmed to play in LEB Plata. These teams were Aguas de Sousas Ourense (relegated from LEB Oro), River Andorra, CB Prat, Fontedoso Carrefour El Bulevar de Ávila, FC Barcelona Regal B, Aurteneche Maquinaria (champion of last Liga EBA) and Tenerife Baloncesto (achieved one of the vacants).[3]

The Spanish Basketball Federation conceded an extension of the July 28 deadline for nine more teams.[4] At this date, four more teams were admitted: Gandía Bàsquet, Leyma Natura Básquet Coruña, Lan Mobel ISB and CB Las Rozas, who played last season in 1ª División (fifth tier, one below Liga EBA).[5]

Some teams demanded a new extension to get the endorsement, and the Federation conceded it until August 10.[6] Oviedo CB and Plasencia Extremadura were admitted after this last extension.[7]
