Chicago Giants

Active 1920–1921 · 35 players

A defunct franchise with no continuous modern successor. Its players are attributed here to Chicago Giants itself — never folded into an unrelated modern club, which would fabricate a lineage that never existed. See the full index of lost clubs.

Mount Rushmore
