The Capitanes de Ciudad de México have made a significant mark on Mexican basketball, and now the Diablos Rojos are following in their footsteps as they begin their participation in the Liga Nacional de Baloncesto Profesional (LNBP). This new team from the capital will play at the Cancha Juan de la Barrera, a venue that promises to be a new home for fans. Although the Palacio de los Deportes was initially considered as their venue, the team has decided to start their journey at this iconic site.
According to journalist Jorge Vargas, the Diablos Rojos are making modifications to the court to reflect the club's colors, creating an atmosphere that feels like home. This effort is crucial for establishing a strong identity in the league, similar to what the Capitanes de Ciudad de México have built in the G-League.
The Diablos Rojos' first season in the LNBP will be an exciting test, as they aim to make their mark in the league and attract fans. With the support of the community and the legacy of the Capitanes, the team hopes to have an immediate impact. Should they decide to change venues in the future, both the Palacio de los Deportes and Arena México are viable options.
Fans are eager to see how this new story in Mexican basketball will unfold, and the Diablos Rojos are ready to show that they can compete at the highest level. With a mix of talent and determination, the team will seek to make their way to the playoffs and leave their mark in the LNBP.
