(詳細はNaismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame, located in Springfield, Massachusetts, honors players who have shown exceptional skill at basketball, all-time great coaches, referees, and other major contributors to the sport. It is named after Dr. James Naismith, who conceived the sport in 1891; he was inducted into the Hall as a contributor in 1959.〔 〕 The Player category has existed since the beginning of the Hall of Fame. For a person to be inducted to the Naismith Hall as a player, they must be "fully retired for five years". If a player retired for a short period, then "his/her case and eligibility is reviewed on an individual basis". As part of the inaugural class of 1959, four players were inducted; 160 more individuals have been inducted as players since then, with the most recent class entering on August 8, 2014. Three players have also been inducted as coaches: John Wooden in 1973, Bill Sharman in 2004, and Lenny Wilkens in 2004. The player inductees in the Class of 2014 were Šarūnas Marčiulionis, Alonzo Mourning, Mitch Richmond, and Guy Rodgers.〔 On February 14, 2015, two players—Louie Dampier and John Isaacs—were announced as members of that year's induction class. In addition, the Hall announced that Tom Heinsohn. already a member as a player, would also be inducted as a coach. At the same time, six additional players were announced as finalists for the 2015 induction class. Dampier, Isaacs, and any other players elected in 2015 will formally enter the Hall on September 11. Of the inducted players, 25 were also members of teams that have been inducted into the Hall as units. One member of the induction class of 2015 also falls in this category. * Henry "Dutch" Dehnert, Nat Holman, and Joe Lapchick were members of the Original Celtics. * William "Pop" Gates and 2015 inductee Isaacs were members of the New York Renaissance. Another former player for the team, Nathaniel "Sweetwater" Clifton, has been inducted as a contributor. * Marques Haynes and Reece "Goose" Tatum were two of the most famous players of the Harlem Globetrotters. Three other players who made their greatest contributions with other teams—Wilt Chamberlain, Connie Hawkins, and Lynette Woodard—were members of the Globetrotters at some point in their professional careers. Furthermore, two other Globetrotter players—longtime member Meadowlark Lemon and the aforementioned Clifton, who briefly played for the team—have been inducted as contributors. * Walt Bellamy, Jerry Lucas, Oscar Robertson, and Jerry West were members of the 1960 United States Olympic Team. * Charles Barkley, Larry Bird, Clyde Drexler, Patrick Ewing, Magic Johnson, Michael Jordan, Karl Malone, Chris Mullin, Scottie Pippen, David Robinson, and John Stockton were members of the 1992 United States Olympic Team, better known as the "Dream Team".
