*Promotion
**Top two teams of Group B1 are promoted to the ACB League.
*He had planned a third phase of play-off, where those classified 2nd to 9th of B1 would play for the second promotion and from 3 to 10th of B2 would play to avoid two of the four relegations. However, this phase was never played due to a conflict between the clubs and the FEB on account of the number of promotions, which finally went from three to two. Thus, there were no decreases, increasing the category from 24 to 28 teams for the following season.
