The Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame is named after the 1891 founder of basketball: James Naismith. This hall has been open in Springfield, MA since 1959, which was originally delayed because of World War II. The independent, nonprofit organization has operations around the globe to promote, maintain, and honor the game of basketball. Its most known operation is the annual Enshrinement Ceremony, but it also oversees more than seventy high school and collegiate competitions both domestically and internationally.

The obverse of this coin has the winning design from a public competition. The artist who won this is Justin Kunz from the US Mint Artistic Infusion Program. His design set out to showcase both the diversity of the athletes for this game and the endurance basketball demands from its players. There are three players all reaching for the basketball over their heads. There is also a subtle design effect in the background with a basketball net. The border of the coin is meant to be a basketball rim, thus giving the impression that the three players might be about to score. 

The reverse of this coin was designed by AIP artist Donna Weaver. She illustrated a classic image of a basketball about to fall through a hoop with inscriptions around the border.
