A year after being relegated from the Spanish Liga Endesa (ACB), MoraBanc Andorra will make their comeback to the top league in the region.

Andorra comfortably defeated Club Ourense 95-61 and guaranteed themselves a first place in the LEB Oro league, the second-highest competition in Spain. As a result, the organization will return to ACB after a one-year break.

The team was relegated from the top division in 2022. At the same time, Andorra was competing in the EuroCup and reached the semifinal stage where they got eliminated by Frutti Extra Bursaspor.

Only one player - Nacho Llovet - has remained on the team from the squad that got relegated in 2022. It will be the second promotion campaign for head coach Natxo Lezcano who also led Rio Breogan to the ACB in 2018.

Andorra made their appearance in ACB in 2014. Coached by current Cazoo Baskonia Vitoria-Gasteiz specialist Joan Penarroya, the club stayed in the top division for 8 years before bouncing to LEB Oro.

One player from the 2014 roster has returned to the team this year - Thomas Schreiner. It will be his second promotion to the ACB, both with Andorra.
