It is 56 years since Real Madrid won their tenth basketball league title. It was on 24 March 1968 that our team was mathematically proclaimed champions with two games to spare after beating Picadero away from home (48-53). The team coached by Pedro Ferrándiz won the tenth LaLiga in the first 12 editions of the competition and the season was historic as they also won their fourth European Cup.

In that 11-team league, Real Madrid finished first with 18 wins from 20 games and were two wins ahead of Estudiantes and Joventut. Clifford Luyk was the top scorer in that edition with 486 points and an average of 24.3 per game.
