When basketball was first created in 1891, they used a soccer ball with laces, which they only passed because dribbling wasn't allowed. But in 1894, they made the first basketball lever that still included laces. And that introduced dribbling, but the laces made it hard. So in 1929, they finally made a basketball without laces so you could finally dribble, which are the same basketballs we still use today.
