Under the impressive leadership of George Mikan, alongside Jim Pollard and Herm Schaefer, Minneapolis ran away with the NBL Championship title of 1948.

The outstanding outcomes of this basketball team over time have been brought forth by both distinguished athletes as well as coaches who were at the helm at some point or another throughout its history.

The Los Angeles jersey and logo also saw changes during this period, with colors and designs changing from city to city. They included black and white jerseys for Sunday matches or home matches.
