The Chicago Condors was a very short-lived member of the American Basketball League (ABL). Its hometown was much larger than usual for the ABL, which mainly targeted mid-market cities, and initial team merchandising was successful.[1]

In the ABL expansion draft leading up to the team's first season, the Condors selected Tausha Mills, Ashley Berggren, Ryneldi Becenti, Cathy Boswell, E.C. Hill, Anita Kaplan, Dana Wilkerson, they later added Joanne McCarthy and Beverly Williams to their roster. [2]

Only 12 games into their first season, the team was forced to disband when, on December 22, 1998, the ABL suddenly went bankrupt.
