210.2 million people follow the NBA league across its various social media platforms, making it the most popular sports league in the world.
So why is it that no one really understands its history?
If your kids aspire to be the next LeBron James, they're already hungry for basketball knowledge... and a deeper understanding of the rich and colorful history of the sport is only going to improve their practice and deepen their love of the game.
Even for kids who don't play but love nothing more than watching the New York Knicks work their magic on the court, all their favorite heroes will come to life when they get to know a little more about the inspirational stories that happen outside of the spotlight.
If you've ever watched your child dribble the ball across the driveway narrating their all-star play with a creative commentary, or heard your teen raving about the last Bulls game, you know they've got basketball fever... and this one's a fever that deserves to be fed!
The NBA was founded in 1946, and there have been many dramatic twists and turns to get it to where it is today.
For kids who look up to the likes of Kevin Durant and Zion Williamson, understanding a little more about the history of basketball is a game-changer.
Watch their passion soar and their determination fly when they hear the inspirational stories behind the NBA's forgotten history.
