The 1949–50 Baltimore Bullets season was the first season of the Maryland club in the newly formed National Basketball Association and sixth overall season of existence including multiple other leagues. Coming from two out of three successful seasons in the American Basketball League, including a championship in 1946, and two successful seasons in the BAA, including a championship run in 1948, their 25–43 record this time around would not be sufficient for them to reach the division playoffs. Another change from the previous year was president Robert "Jake" Embry's decision not to televise the Bullets' games.[1] The club would change hands towards the end of the season, to a group of local businessmen.[2]
