History
Professional basketball in Michoacán dates back to 2006, when the Guerreros de Morelia team was established. The team, nevertheless, folded after the 2007–08 season.
In 2017, Garzas de Plata de la UAEH, a team that was part of the Autonomous University of the State of Hidalgo, had to leave the institution due to financial problems. The franchise then moved to Morelia and was rebranded as Aguacateros, meaning avocado growers.
The movement was officially announced on October 11, 2017 by Silvano Aureoles Conejo, Governor of Michoacán, who also stated that team was not being publicly funded by the State's government but privately by a group of businessmen.
The team's colors are green, white, and black, which represent the colors of the avocado. The team's logo features an avocado with a basketball in the center, surrounded by the team's name and the city's name.
Aguacateros de Michoacan has quickly become a competitive team in the LNBP, reaching the playoffs in their first season and making it to the semifinals in their second season. The team's success can be attributed to their talented roster, which includes both Mexican and international players.
The team plays their home games at the Auditorio de la Universidad Michoacana, a 5,000-seat arena located in Morelia. The team has a strong fan base in the region, and their games are known for their lively atmosphere and passionate supporters.
Overall, Aguacateros de Michoacan is a young and promising basketball team that represents the pride and spirit of the Michoacan region.
