Who Invented Basketball?
Dr. James Naismith invented Basketball in 1891, Naismith was a Canadian physical educater instructor. At first, players earned points by tossing or throwing a Soccer ball into a peach basket. Once they had made the ball in the basket, one person would climb on a ladder and grab the ball and start playing again. The iron hoops with open-ended nets didn't come along until 1913.
Dribble- To dribble you have to have one hand on the ball, then push it to the ground and repeat that, but when you pick the ball up you can't dribble any more.
Slam Dunk- To slam dunk you need to jump up in the air either have one or two hands on the ball and just slam the ball in the basket or hoop.
