About this quiz

What you’ll do in this quiz

Every question asks you to pair an NBA team with the correct city, helping you lock in home markets across the league.

Each prompt uses a 4-option multiple-choice format with no timer, so you can think it through instead of rushing.

Difficulty and question settings

Choose how many questions you want to answer and select a difficulty that fits your mood - quick warm-up or full-length challenge.

Difficulty is balanced by mixing well-known teams and cities with less obvious pairings, so the quiz stays fair while still testing real recall.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Mixing up nearby markets (e.g., New York vs. Brooklyn, LA vs. other California cities)
  • Confusing team names with metro areas (city vs. region wording)
  • Overthinking obvious picks when a familiar team-city match is correct
  • Getting tripped up by similar-sounding cities across different states
  • Assuming a team’s nickname hints at the city (it often doesn’t)

Tips to improve your score

Try grouping teams by conference or division in your head, then double-check the city before you click. If you miss one, use it as a flashcard moment - those repeat errors are usually the fastest wins.
