The Basketball Association of America (BAA) was founded in 1946, by owners
of the major ice hockey arenas in the Northeastern and Midwestern United
States and Canada. The league adopted the name National Basketball
Association (NBA) in 1949 after merging with the rival National Basketball
League (NBL). The NBA was born with ten teams from the BAA and seven
teams from the NBL.
