the first basket ball player was James Naismith he invented and played basket ball it was 1891 and he was thinking of a way to keep his students occupied on the winter days so he nailed a peach basket to a 10 foot elevated track and he didn't remove the bottom so every time someone made a shot they had 2 go up 10 feet to get the ball
