What You'll Find in the Archive

The NBAHoopsOnline archive is designed for both casual fans and basketball researchers. Some pages cover familiar subjects such as NBA champions, MVP winners and career scoring leaders, while others preserve information that is rarely collected in one place.

That combination of mainstream NBA history and obscure historical material is the focus of NBAHoopsOnline. The goal is not simply to list modern statistics, but to preserve the people, teams, leagues, games and records that tell the broader story of professional basketball.

About NBAHoopsOnline

NBAHoopsOnline has been documenting professional basketball history in one form or another since 1997. The site contains thousands of pages covering the NBA as well as the BAA, NBL, ABA and other professional basketball leagues, with a particular emphasis on historical information that can be difficult to locate elsewhere.

The archive continues to grow as additional records, rosters, photographs, box scores, team histories and other historical material are researched and added.

NBAHoopsOnline is an independent basketball history website and is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by the National Basketball Association.

Corrections, Research and Contributions

Basketball history is an ongoing research project. Early records can be incomplete, team names changed frequently, franchises moved or folded, and surviving sources sometimes disagree. If you find an error or have additional historical information that could improve the archive, NBAHoopsOnline welcomes corrections and research contributions.
