About this quiz

What you’ll be tested on

Franchise history isn’t just trivia—it’s a timeline of cities, names, and branding eras. This quiz focuses on relocations, renamed teams, and rebrands that reshaped the league.

Each question is multiple-choice with 4 options and no timer, so you can think through tricky “before they were…” moments without rushing.

Difficulty and how to play

Difficulty is mixed on purpose: you’ll see straightforward modern-era changes alongside older, less-remembered moves. You can choose your preferred question count and difficulty before starting to tailor the run to a quick warm-up or a full deep dive.

  • Practice matching former team names to today’s franchises
  • Spot city-to-city relocations and the order they happened
  • Separate true rebrands from minor logo/jersey refreshes
  • Watch for similar-sounding cities and repeated nicknames across sports
  • Build confidence with easy items before the tougher historical curveballs

Common pitfalls (and how to avoid them)

Many misses come from mixing up franchise lineage with expansion teams, or assuming a name change always came with a move. Another frequent trap is confusing ABA/NBA history overlaps and the timing of mergers and renames.

If you’re unsure, slow down and anchor your guess to a city first, then the era—those two clues usually narrow the options quickly.
