(eliminated 1–2) The 1949–50 Sheboygan Red Skins season was the only season for the Sheboygan Red Skins in the National Basketball Association (NBA). It was also the 12th professional basketball season in Sheboygan's history, including the eleven previous seasons they played in the National Basketball League before this season, and their 17th overall season of play. After this season ended for Sheboygan, the Red Skins would leave the NBA on April 24, 1950 (one day before the 1950 NBA draft began) and join the original Denver Nuggets franchise, the Waterloo Hawks, and the Anderson Packers (who previously withdrew from the NBA themselves weeks earlier) following pressure from other big markets alongside the higher costs of the newly-formed NBA being too much to bare for them by comparison to their previous seasons in the NBL led to them creating the short-lived rivaling National Professional Basketball League as a failed effort to survive beyond the NBA, though unlike the other teams, Sheboygan would manage to survive a few extra years longer than them as an independent team afterward due to their previous long-term history as such.
