Introduction
The National Basketball Association (NBA) is the preeminent men’s professional basketball league in North America, and is widely considered to be the premier men’s professional basketball league in the world. It has 30 teams (29 in the United States and 1 in Canada), and is an active member of USA Basketball (USAB). The NBA is one of the four major professional sports leagues in the United States and Canada. NBA players are the world’s best paid athletes by average annual salary per player.
The league was founded in New York City on June 6, 1946, as the Basketball Association of America (BAA). The BAA traces its roots back to three earlier leagues: the International Professional Basketball League (IPBL), which was founded in 1898;the Eastern Basketball League (EBL), which began play in 1909; and finally, the Midwest Basketball Conference (MBC), also established in 1909. The BAA became the NBA after merging with the National Basketball League (NBL) on August 3, 1949.
