winters. Wikipedia

Basketball was originally played with a soccer ball. The first balls made specifically for basketball

The Net

What is a basketball net?

The net serves many functions in the game of basketball. One of the functions of a
basketball net is to make it easier for the player to retrieve the ball. When the ball
passes through the rim on an angle, the net will slow the ball down and make it easier
for the player to collect underneath.

The Rings

The rim or ring in basketball is a metal circle which the ball must go through in order for
a point to be scored. The net is attached to the bottom of the rim and hangs below
and behind the rim is the backboard. This creates what we know as the basketball
hoop.
