The 1932–33 Akron Goodyear Wingfoots season was the Goodyear Wingfoots' only season in the National Professional Basketball League (NPBL), a short-lived professional basketball league of sorts that could be seen as the precursor of both the Midwest Basketball Conference (MBC) and the National Basketball League (NBL), with the latter league eventually merging operations in 1949 with the younger, rivaling Basketball Association of America (BAA) to become the National Basketball Association (NBA). However, if you include their previous seasons of existence as an independent team, alongside seasons where they competed in the Amateur Athletic Union and the National Industrial League, this season would officially be considered their 15th season of play as a team. Entering this season, the Goodyear Wingfoots would join the inner city rivaling Akron Firestone Non-Skids operated by head coach Paul Sheeks and the Indianapolis Kautskys team that was owned by Frank Kautsky as three of the nine incoming teams to create that new league. Unfortunately for the rest of the league, four of the teams created would end up folding operations throughout the season for one reason or another, with the Goodyear Wingfoots themselves playing in only six games this year. Worse yet for the Goodyear squad, they would finish the season with a below-average 2–4 record for a technical fourth place finish, which resulted in them failing to qualify for the NPBL's playoffs for this season. Following this season's conclusion, the Goodyear Wingfoots would continue playing as a team in the (local) National Industrial League until 1936, when they decided to enter the Midwest Basketball Conference that was created by Paul Sheeks of the Akron Firestone Non-Skids and Frank Kautsky of the Indianapolis Kautskys for what would ultimately become their second and final season of existence before it later became the National Basketball League.
