Coviran Granada loses chance to stay in Endesa League ahead of schedule. Coviran Granada has officially lost any chance of avoiding relegation from the Endesa League. After their defeat to Barça, the team no longer has a mathematical possibility to stay in the top division. Three rounds remain, but the situation is now irreversible.
Coviran Granada has lost all mathematical chances of retaining its place in the Endesa League after a 98–101 defeat to Barça in Round 31. This result proved critical for the Andalusian club: even if the team wins the remaining games, it cannot escape the relegation zone. At the moment, Granada has just 6 wins and 25 losses, making the gap to its nearest rivals insurmountable.
The situation was further complicated by the upcoming match between MoraBanc Andorra and Recoletas Salud San Pablo Burgos. As the club points out, the outcome of that game makes it impossible for Granada to achieve the number of wins needed for survival. Even if the team wins all remaining matches, it will not be able to overtake its rivals in the standings.
For Coviran Granada, this is their fourth season in the Endesa League since debuting in 2022–23. During this time, the club has tried to establish itself among the Spanish basketball elite, but this season has been the most difficult yet. In recent rounds, the team failed to reverse a negative trend, and key matches were lost by the narrowest of margins.
The loss of any chance to stay in the league has been a significant event for both fans and the organization itself. Interest in the Endesa League's battle for survival remains high: a recent highlight was the clash between Baskonia and Barça, where the Catalan team played without two key players — more details about this matchup are available in the article about the key match in Vitoria.
The Endesa League is considered one of the strongest national basketball leagues in Europe. In the 2025–26 season, 18 teams are competing in the tournament, with the battle for survival traditionally marked by fierce competition. For clubs making their debut in the top division, staying among the elite becomes a serious challenge, especially given the demanding schedule and high level of opponents.
