The Chicago Condors were a very short-lived member of the American Basketball League (ABL).

Their hometown was much larger than usual for the ABL, which mainly targeted mid-market cities, and initial team merchandising was successful.

General manager Allison Hodges was the wife of former Chicago Bulls star Craig Hodges,[1] and former Bulls assistant Jim Cleamons was head coach.

[2][3] In the ABL expansion draft leading up to the team's first season, the Condors selected Tausha Mills, Ashley Berggren, Ryneldi Becenti, Cathy Boswell, E.C.

Only 12 games into their first season, the team was forced to disband when, on December 22, 1998, the ABL suddenly went bankrupt and folded, though Hodges told The New York Times that she believed the league was on its last legs before then.
