1946 - 47 BAA Season Review

ABA

Basketball Association of America (BAA)


The Basketball Association of America (BAA) was a professional basketball league in North America, founded in 1946. Following its third season in 1948–49, the BAA merged with the National Basketball League (NBL) to form the National Basketball Association (NBA). Seven NBL teams, including the expansion team Indianapolis Olympians, joined with the ten BAA teams. (Indianapolis Jets and the Providence Steamrollers folded prior to the merger) In total, the new league had 17 teams located in a mix of large and small cities Prior to the merge, the league held the 1949 college draft on March 21, which was the last event held under the name BAA. The NBA later adopted the BAA's history and statistics as its own but did not do the same for NBL records and statistics.
