The Circuito de Basquetbol del Noreste, "CIBANE" was a professional basketball league in Northeastern Mexico. CIBANE was founded in 2010 with 6 teams. The main purpose of this league is to give Mexican players the opportunity to showcase their talents, while maintaining a high level of basketball.[1] After low funds forced league officials to cancel the 2014 season, the league was indefinitely suspended in December of that year.[2]

Rules[edit]

There are some specific rules to ensure that Mexican players have the opportunity to play, like allowing only two non-Mexican born players per team.[3] Some other rules are having a trade deadline so the league stays competitive until the end of the season, finally, the CIBANE league has applied a hard salary cap to maintain fair rosters and promote the use of young local players.[4]
