It is a great initiative and a historic moment for India to host the NBA. Basketball has been a sport that has been neglected from a long time. While only a handful of players like Satnam Singh and Amjyot Singh have tasted the international level professional basketball this event will draw more attention to the sport in a long run. Reliance foundation is doing its bit to carry forward the game to the highest level in India, but India being a cricket frenzy country will atleast take 10 years to produce someone like Yao Ming.
