My social studies fair topic is how basketball became a sport, and I also research many things about basketball. The reason why basketball is so popular is because basketball is easy to learn and also teaches you how to be a good team player. Basketball is really different from before to now, they change a lot of rules. I think the reason why they change is because they are more formal basketball, and back to before in the NBA many people are racist, people don't get treated with inequality. I think those are the reasons why I want to choose this topic to write about and talk about. I’m trying to find some evidence to support my information, and try to show people what happened during that time. I think many people would like this sport. Basketball is really popular no matter before or now. It’s alway been a popular sport. I think basketball has changed a lot.
