Indiana Basketball Hall Of Fame
History
The Indiana Basketball Hall of Fame was organized in 1962. The museum was in Indianapolis from 1970 to 1986; the present-day facility in New Castle opened in 1990.
In addition to featuring its Hall of Fame inductees, the museum includes photographs, pennants, and displays of artifacts of championship teams and their schools.
Inductees
Players become eligible for induction into the Hall of Fame "twenty-six years after they graduate from high school." The first women became eligible for induction following the 2000–2001 season. On March 1, 2002, Cinda Rice Brown became the first woman inducted onto the Hall of Fame.
The Hall of Fame's website provides an official list of inductees; notables include John Wooden, Everett Case, Oscar Robertson, Lee H. Hamilton, Larry Bird, Del Harris, Baron Hill, Gregg Popovich, Bobby Plump, and Chuck Taylor.
