The 1937–38 NBL season was the third season of the National Basketball League (NBL), and its first season after the rebranding of the Midwest Basketball Conference as the NBL. The regular season began on November 27, 1937, and ended on February 20, 1938. The playoffs began on February 22, 1938, and concluded on March 4, 1938, with the Akron Goodyear Wingfoots defeating the Oshkosh All-Stars in the NBL Championship by 2 games to 1. This season would be considered the loosest structured of the twelve NBL seasons played, as the lack of proper formatting in mind made this season feel a bit too similar to the two Midwest Basketball Conference seasons played before this one began.
