Oakland Oaks 1967 Hoodie

The Oakland Oaks were a charter member of the original American Basketball Association and the first West Coast basketball team to win a major professional championship. Formed in February 1967, the team played in the ABA during the 1967–68 and 1968–69 seasons at the Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum. The team had widely varying performances in its two years of existence. In their first season, the Oaks finished 22–56 and had the second-worst performance of any professional basketball team ever in a major league, of 1485 such team-seasons only the 1946–1947 Pittsburgh Ironmen had a worse year. The team was sold and moved to Washington, D.C. for the 1969–70 season, where it was renamed the Washington Caps.
