The Liga ACB, known as Liga Endesa for sponsorship reasons, is the top professional basketball division of the Spanish basketball league system. Administered by the Asociación de Clubs de Baloncesto (ACB), Liga ACB is contested by 18 teams, with the two lowest-placed teams relegated to the Primera FEB and replaced by the top team in that division plus the winner of the promotion playoffs.
The competition was founded as the ACB Primera División on 1983 following the decision of clubs in the Liga Nacional, founded in 1957, to break away from the Spanish Basketball Federation and professionalize the league. The league's revenues were around €40 million in 2025, with DAZN and Endesa contributing 50% of the revenues of the league. The league is a corporation where president Antonio Martín is responsible for its management, whilst the member clubs act as shareholders. Clubs were apportioned central payment revenues of €16 million in 2023–24.
A total of 54 teams have competed in Liga ACB since its inception in 1983. Seven teams have been crowned champions, with FC Barcelona winning the title a record 17 times and Real Madrid 16 times, though Liga ACB also saw other champions, including Baskonia, Joventut Badalona, Bàsquet Manresa, Baloncesto Málaga and Valencia Basket.
Liga ACB is one of the most popular professional indoor sports leagues in the world, with an average attendance of 6,633 for league matches in the 2024–25 season. This is the 10th-highest of any domestic professional indoor sports league in the world and the fifth-highest of any professional basketball league in the world, behind the National Basketball Association (NBA), the EuroLeague, the Women's National Basketball Association (WNBA), and the National Basketball League (NBL).
