Name the current NBA franchises in order (see NAMING NOTE below) from newest to oldest year of that franchise’s inception. Includes previous locations/names of that franchise. First year of franchise shown. You get a strike for entering a team out of order – 3 strikes and you’re out. Teams entering NBA in the same year can be answered in any order for that year.

The original BAA is included as part of the team’s original year. For the teams which joined as part of the ABA-NBA merger, use the year of the merger, not the year they began in the ABA.

NAMING NOTE: You can enter either the full name or nickname to answer – just the location will not work.
