It was how the players played, their equipment, a basketball court, and basketball shoes. In the beginning, players wore knee pads and ran around in Converse.

Present Day

As of today arenas, shoes, and the entire game of basketball has evolved due to many influences such as unique basketball players, the science behind shooting a ball, and different coming together.
