Falcons Team Formation
The Falcons played only in the inaugural season of the BAA and finished 4th in the Western Division with a 20–40 record, 18½ games out of first place. Center–forward Stan Miasek was the team’s star, scoring 895 points (14.9 points per game) and making the BAA’s First Team that year.
The Detroit Falcons were a professional basketball team based in Detroit. It played in the 1946 – 1947 season in Basketball Association of America, a predecessor organization to the National Basketball Association. The team folded after one season, leaving the Motor City without a professional basketball team until a decade later, when the Fort Wayne Pistons moved there.
