When was basketball invented, and by who?

  1. James Naismith in 1891

  2. Alexander Cartwright in 1845

  3. Walter Camp in 1880

  4. James Naismith in 1901

The correct answer is: James Naismith in 1891

Basketball was invented in 1891, and it was created by James Naismith. Alexander Cartwright is actually credited with creating the sport of baseball, not basketball. Similarly, Walter Camp is recognized as the "Father of American Football," so he is also not the correct answer. James Naismith was the sole inventor of basketball in 1891, not 1901. Therefore, A is the only correct answer.
