Valencia Basket Club, S.A.D. is a professional basketball team based in Valencia, Valencian Community, Spain. The team plays in the Asociación de Clubs de Baloncesto (ACB) and the Eurocup. Having its origins in a basketball section of Valencia CF, the team was established in 1986, and gained popularity under his former denomination of Pamesa Valencia.

History

On May 4, 1988 the team won its first promotion to the ACB¹ where the team remained until the 1994/1995 season.
