The desire to compress the season led to the unusual situation of a midweek start to the regular season without all the teams before the traditional opening event is even played. Wednesday’s action included the first matchup that would indicate which team could have the edge in challenging for a title and Lauren Cox had a strong debut for Valencia, but they lost to Girona 68-62. League newcomers Jairis had a good start with a 64-51 win over Sedis. Imani Tate and Zaragoza fended off Blanca Millan and Ensino 68-63. The Barcelona CBS project finally reached the top division and they had a fantastic start with Viktoria Mircheva leading them past Leganes 96-49. Even with some roster changes, Avenida was supposed to have an easy time with a completely makeshift Gran Canaria squad, but they did not build a comfortable lead until late, winning 69-58. Tenerife managed to stay in the top division because Promete ended up not being able to remain and they did not start with a win on Thursday as Estudiantes left with a 69-57 win.
