The National Professional Basketball League was created during this season in an another attempt to bring the professional game to the Midwest. The company-sponsored Akron Firestones dominated the circuit, losing only once in regular season play before polishing off second-place Toledo in three straight games in the playoffs. The Firestones combined ABL veterans Cookie Cunningham and Shang Chadwick with talented young players like Merle Alexander and Ray Dickerson. The league’s leading scorer was former Purdue All-American John Wooden, who took time off from his high school teaching and coaching duties to perform on weekends. Depression realities doomed the new circuit to just one year of existence.
