A strange little side quest
The rules may be simple on screen, but the backstory around Dunkin Beanz is anything but tiny. The earliest basketball games used peach baskets, and Naismith wrote 13 original rules for the new indoor sport. There is another connection worth keeping in the same mental pocket: Basketball became an Olympic medal sport in 1936, while women’s basketball joined the Olympic programme in 1976. That is the kind of background detail that makes another attempt at Dunkin Beanz feel a bit more connected to the history of play.
