Washington Generals
|
The Washington Generals were the mainstay opponent of the well-known Harlem Globetrotters for years, but were best known for their spectacular losing streak in exhibition games. Founded in 1953 by former NBA point guard Louis "Red" Klotz, the Generals' only win came in a 1971 game against the Globetrotters, with Klotz scoring the winning basket. Klotz disbanded the Generals in 1995, forming a new team, the New York Nationals, which also boasts an impressive losing streak.
