The 1972–73 ABA season was the sixth season of the American Basketball Association. Following the conclusion of the 1972 ABA draft (which weirdly has the first five rounds not properly recorded when the rest of the draft rounds have been properly recorded as of 2026), both The Floridians and the Pittsburgh Condors franchises had folded operations after failing to find viable places to relocate their operations going forward, which briefly left the ABA with only nine competing teams in the offseason. However, the ABA decided to (for the first and only time in league history) award an expansion franchise to Dr. Leonard Bloom (President and CEO of the United States Capital Corporation) for $1 million to play in San Diego, California, with him naming the team the San Diego Conquistadors (though due to a feud with the original tenants of the San Diego Sports Arena (who wanted to own their own professional basketball team in the ABA themselves), they did not play in San Diego Sports Arena, but instead played their games at the Peterson Gymnasium this season). Subsequently, this meant that the Memphis Tams (formerly the Memphis Pros) would move to the Eastern Division. Once again, the best regular season team did not win the ABA Finals, with the Indiana Pacers (who had the 4th best record), led by playoff MVP George McGinnis, winning the ABA championship, 4 games to 3 over the Kentucky Colonels.
