Most NBA scoring titles

The National Basketball Association (NBA) is a professional men’s Basketball League in North America composed of 30 teams (29 in the United States and 1 in Canada). It was founded in New York City on June 6, 1946, as the Basketball Association of America (BAA).[1] The league adopted the name National Basketball Association on August 3, 1949, after merging with the rival National Basketball League (NBL).[2][3]

The NBA is one of the four major North American professional sports leagues, alongside Major League Baseball (MLB), the National Football League (NFL), and the National Hockey League (NHL). NBA players are the world’s best paid athletes by average annual salary per player.[4]

The league was founded in 1946 as the Basketball Association of America, and played its first season with 11 teams. The BAA was created by owners of Major League Baseball stadiums who were looking for another event to occupy their facilities during baseball’s off-season. At that time only four of the twelve NBA teams were based west of Chicago. The jump to today’s 29 franchises took place over a span of almost 60 years. Through mergers, relocations and expansions teams slowly spread across North America until they reached their present configuration: an unbroken line from Vancouver down both coasts to Miami. Not all these moves were successful; some involved financial difficulties and others failed because they were ahead of their time. SeattleSupersonics fans still lament their city’s losing an NBA Franchise while Charlotte Hornets supporters are equally upset about losing theirs. In some cases cities have been fortunate enough to regain a team that had previously moved elsewhere. Oklahoma City Thunder fans can boast about having two NBA franchises: their original 1950s team which later became today’s New Orleans Pelicans plus a more recent edition that began play in 2008 as the Seattle SuperSonics then moved to OKC five years later.
