Anyone who has spent time in Syracuse, New York, knows that
basketball season is the most wonderful time of the year. And while
the local popularity of the sport is known nationwide, the region
also has a long and rich basketball history. Sports historian Mark
Baker traces the evolution of Syracuse's "hoops roots," beginning
in the early days, when local, national and college basketball
organizations were primitive institutions. It was during this time
that one of the first teams to gain a national following was
founded here by an Italian immigrant, Danny Biasone, and it was in
Syracuse that the 24 second clock was invented. From the outset,
Syracuse residents and fans were hooked, and this love of the game
has endured, feeding the fanaticism that sustains the sport today.
