The 1937–38 Kankakee Gallagher Trojans season was the first and only professional season played for the Gallagher Trojans franchise out in the small city of Kankakee, Illinois under the National Basketball League, which officially was the first season that it existed as a professional basketball league after previously existing as a semi-pro or amateur basketball league called the Midwest Basketball Conference in its first two seasons back in 1935. The Kankakee Gallagher Trojans joined the Richmond King Clothiers and later Oshkosh All-Stars as one of three new teams to join the NBL once the league changed its name from the MBC to the NBL. This team got the Gallagher part of their team name from the fact that many of their players were originally alumni from the local Gallagher Business School at the time, to the point where many of its players not only never played professional basketball before this season, but actually never played it again afterward as well. Still, they would be one of seven teams to compete in the Western Division this season, with them representing thirteen inaugural NBL teams to compete in the first season under the NBL name, comprising six teams competing in the Eastern Division and seven teams competing in the Western Division.
