The 1946–47 Syracuse Nationals season was the first season of the franchise when they existed. They competed in the National Basketball League during their first three seasons of existence. The Nationals' first season of existence was also the NBL's first official season where they actually implemented a drafting system similar to what the future rivaling Basketball Association of America had for the eventual NBA draft system a year later following the conclusion of their inaugural league season for the purpose of controlled player salaries and limiting the idea of outbidding other players outside of their own 12-player teams at hand, as well as implementing key players to signing binding contracts as soon as they could and the NBL looking to have full-time referees on display. Team owner Danny Biasone originally created the franchise by accident since he only really wanted the Rochester Royals to play an exhibition match of sorts against a local team in Syracuse, New York that Biasone would sponsor for against the team in nearby Rochester, but the Royals' team owner, Les Harrison, had no interest in the idea, no matter the guarantee at the time, which led to Biasone complaining to the NBL's offices held in Chicago, Illinois before they offered him a spot in the NBL for a team out in Syracuse, much to his surprise and amazement. During this season, the team's inaugural head coach, Bennie Borgmann, would be let go from his position, with minority team owner George Mingin being the interim head coach for two games before Jerry Rizzo took over as the player-coach for the rest of the season, including the 1947 NBL Playoffs, where they ended up losing in the Eastern Division opening round 3–1 to the Rochester Royals.
