The Astros de Jalisco and the Soles de Mexicali meet in the National Professional Basketball League (LNBP) championship series for the first time, a match-up between the two best regular-season teams in the 2026 campaign. 

The series is a best-of-seven format, with the first two games scheduled for November 12 and 13 in Mexicali before shifting to Guadalajara for games 3 and 4 on Monday, November 16 and Tuesday, November 17, 8 p.m. at the Arena Astros (on Avenida Avila Camacho, two blocks from Plaza Patria).  If needed, games 5 and 7 will be in Mexicali, and game 6 in Guadalajara.

For the Astros, the stakes are clear: the franchise has reached the finals of Mexico’s premier basketball competition three times before — in 2021, 2022 and 2023 — and lost each one.

Standing in the way is a Mexicali team chasing its fifth title and its first since the 2019-20 season. The Soles finished the regular season atop the standings at 21-7, with the Astros at 20-8.

The Astros have four Cibacopa (Pacific Coast League) titles, but winning the much tougher LNBP would surpass those achievements.
