Overview

The 2019-20 season ended with no winners due to the coronavirus pandemic and economical issues started to arise in the club.[1] President Aldo Vanoli called the community for help[2] and, at the end, he found new investors and managed to submit the subscription to the 2020–21 LBA season.[3]

Meanwhile, in this first period of uncertainty, almost all players, except of Topias Palmi, were released. With the hiring of Paolo Galbiati as head coach,[4] Cremona started building the team from the start.

With coach Galbiati the team had a decent performance such that he was renewed until 2023.[5]
