Who invented basketball?

Описание: Who invented basketball?
In the winter of 1891, college students performed gymnastic exercises in the gymnasium.
At that time, this was the only means of introducing sports, in physical education classes.
It was very boring.
To make it more fun the teacher tied two baskets to the railing of the gym balcony.
He divided the students into two teams and asked them to throw more balls into the opponents' basket.
The instructor was Canadian James Naismith.
It took place in Springfield, Massachusetts.
