1954–55 Minneapolis Lakers season

The 1954–55 Minneapolis Lakers season was the Lakers' seventh season in the NBA. During the early part of the season, the Lakers played a total of four different games against the Baltimore Bullets before the original Bullets team folded operations early in the season on November 27, 1954; all four of the games the Lakers played against the Bullets ultimately ended up being wiped out from the official record books for the NBA's history. The Bullets would win their first game played against the Lakers that season on November 3, 1954 with a close 93–92 victory in Baltimore's favor out in Baltimore, though the Lakers would win their final three matches against them on November 11 & 12 in neutral sites and on November 21 in Minneapolis for what later became the Bullets' penultimate game played that season. If the four games played were officially kept as a part of the season's record for the Lakers, the official record would have had Minneapolis get a winning record of 43–33 instead of just 40–32 for the season, with the Lakers joining the New York Knicks as the only teams to lose to the Bullets once and get at least one victory over the Bullets once during this season before the original Baltimore franchise folded operations.
