The 1937–38 NBL season was the third season of the National Basketball League (NBL).
The league was initially founded as the Midwest Basketball Conference (MBC) in 1935 but changed its name prior to the season in an attempt to attract a larger audience and avoid confusion with the Big Ten Conference, ofted referred to as the Midwest Conference.
[1] The season launched with nine franchises, it was irregular because the teams were the ones that had to choose the day and the hour of the match, even the duration (four quarters of 10 minutes or three parts of 15 minutes) was chosen by the local team before the match.
The season ended with the Akron Goodyear Wingfoots becoming the NBL's first championship team.
