Episode 22 - Cheryl Miller
Cheryl Miller is arguably the greatest women’s basketball player of all time, but her career was ended suddenly when she tore her ACL at age 22. This is a story of greatness cut short, and a story that needs to be kept alive.

Episode 24 - The History of the Dribble
We have a very important announcement today: Basketball History 101 is now officially part of the Sports History Network, a collection of podcasts all centered around the history of various sports! The network is headed up by Arnie Chapman, the host of The Football History Dude podcast. Go check out his podcast as well as the podcasts of all the other creators within the Sports History Network, the headquarters for sports' yesteryear! Link is down below.
Today’s episode covers the history of the dribble. It was not part of the original version of the game. Instead, the dribble was invented as a way of exploiting a loophole in the rules that said you could not run while holding the ball. Thankfully, the dribble was accepted as a new technique and the rules were updated to make it a permanent part of the game.
