World Professional Basketball Tournament (WPBT)

Recap
The Chicago World Tourney rounded out the season, but with George Mikan and the hometown Gears sitting out the tourney it lacked the interest of past years. Fort Wayne’s attempt to win its fourth straight title was ended in the semi-finals with a 61-56 loss to Toledo. In the championship game, Toledo succumbed to NBL rival Indianapolis 62-47.
