History & origins
James Naismith devised basketball in Massachusetts in 1891 as an indoor team sport, initially using peach baskets as goals.
The sport developed into a global game, and shooting challenges became a familiar part of playground and arcade play.
Jawna’s Hoops focuses on that shooting tradition through short touch-controlled attempts. It is a compact adaptation, rather than a simulation of a full basketball match.
