James Naismith

View source
Info
Quote



James Naismith was a Canadian-American physical educator, physician, Christian chaplain, sports coach, and innovator. The same year he left Canada for Springfield, Massachusetts, he invented the game of basketball. He wrote the original basketball rule book and founded the University of Kansas basketball program.

He does not have an Ordinary People Change the World book but he will appear in an Xavier Riddle and the Secret Museum episode, I Am James Naismith.

Since he was met in 1873 in Bennie's Corners, Canada, he would have been 12.

He is voiced by Cody Black.
