Breogán 5th ACB title 8th Spanish title TDK Manresa The 1994–95 ACB season was the 12th season of the top Spanish professional basketball league, since its establishment in 1983. It started on 8 September 1994 with the first round of the regular season and ended on 21 May 1995 with the finals.
FC Barcelona Banca Catalana won their fifth ACB title, and their eighth Spanish title by defeating Unicaja at the fifth leg of the finals in one of the most epic moments in the history of the league. At the fourth leg of the finals, which was very even, with two points of advantage for FC Barcelona and possession for Unicaja, Michael Ansley shot a three-pointer with seven seconds left that could have given to Unicaja its first league title, but missed the three-pointer and sent the series to the fifth leg. At the fifth leg of the finals, FC Barcelona finally won the championship in a fixture that Juan Antonio San Epifanio retired from the basketball as a player.
Format changes
From this season, the league adopted for the regular season a round-robin tournament, in which every team played all others in the league once at home and once away, and reduced to eight the teams competing in the championship playoffs removing the round of 16.
