The first Basketball game, played in December 1891, featured 18 players from the YMCA in Springfield, Massachusetts. Dr. James Naismith, the inventor of the game, divided his class into two teams of nine players each. While the specific names of all 18 players are not well-documented, notable participants included players like John R. Thompson and other YMCA students. This initial game laid the foundation for the sport's development.
