D.His YMCA students needed an indoor activity during a snowstorm
Explanation:
In the winter of 1891, male students at the then International YMCA Training School, Springfield, Massachusetts were restless from not having any sports to play as most games they played such as Lacrosse and football (soccer) needed to be played in warmer weather.
The school realised that there was a need for an indoor sport that could be played regardless of the weather outside. This is where James Naismith came in.
He came up with a game that drew influence from Rugby, Lacrosse and Soccer and for the goals baskets were used because that was all the janitor had. The baskets however needed people underneath them to retrieve ball and it was only a few years later that it was cut at the bottom to enable the balls to fall through the basket. He then drew up 15 rules and this was the birth of basketball.
