National Basketball League ( NBL) är en nordamerikansk professionell basketliga för män som existerade från 1937 till 1949. Det slogs samman med Basketball Association of America (BAA) 1949 för att bilda National Basketball Association (NBA).
NBL skapades 1937 och inkluderade 13 tidigare oberoende team. Den dök ursprungligen upp 1935 som Midwestern Basketball Conference, men bytte namn två år senare i ett försök att få mer uppmärksamhet. Ligan skapades av tre företag - General Electric , Firestone och Goodyear - och bestod huvudsakligen av företagslag baserade i Great Lakes-regionen . NBL varade i 12 år innan de slogs samman med BAA 1949 för att bilda National Basketball Association.
I början av ligan var dess regler mer informella. Så lagen fick självständigt bestämma schemat för sina matcher, men varje lag var skyldigt att spela minst 10 matcher, varav 4 var borta. Spelet bestod av fyra 10-minuterskvartar eller tre 15-minutersperioder. Formatet på spelet valdes av värdarna. Vissa lag var oberoende, andra var företagsgrupper och många spelare i företagsteam arbetade för sina egna företag.
Historien om NBL är uppdelad i tre perioder: den första är associerad med Oshkosh All-Stars , den andra med Fort Wayne Zollner Pistons och den sista med George Miken .
