The 1942–43 Sheboygan Red Skins season was the Red Skins' fifth year in the United States' National Basketball League (NBL), which was also the fifth year the league existed.[1] Five teams competed in the NBL in 1942–43, the league's lowest number to that point (largely caused by the war), and the league did not use divisions.[2]

The Red Skins played their home games at the Sheboygan Municipal Auditorium and Armory.[3] For the second time in franchise history (1941), the Red Skins advanced to the NBL Championship.[2] They then went on to win their first league title by defeating the Fort Wayne Zollner Pistons, two games to one in a best-of-three series.[2] In the third and deciding game, Ed Dancker made the game-winning shot from the corner with less than five seconds remaining to win the championship.[4]

Head coach Carl Roth won the league's Coach of the Year Award, while player Ken Buehler was named NBL Rookie of the Year.[2] Ed Dancker (First Team), Buddy Jeannette (Second), and Ken Suesens (Second) earned All-NBL honors.[2]
