There are several reasons why the NBA has historically had a large number of African American players. One reason is due to the lack of opportunities in other sports for African American athletes. Additionally, the early emergence of talented African American basketball players helped establish successful college and professional careers. Because basketball is a team sport, it enables people from different backgrounds and cultures to come together and form meaningful relationships on the court. Furthermore, access to better education resources within athletic programs compared to other sports contributed further growth in African American participation in the NBA.

There are several reasons why the NBA has predominately African American players. Firstly, African Americans make up a large proportion of the population in the United States, meaning there is a larger pool of potential players who are African American. Additionally, African Americans have traditionally faced fewer obstacles and discrimination in access to sports and athletic programmes compared to other ethnic groups, which has enabled more talented athletes from this demographic to reach the professional level. Historical factors have also played a role; for example, since theEARLY 20th century there has been an abundance of excellent basketball-playing high schools and recreational leagues set up within numerous urban communities which primarily serve minority demographics. Furthermore these leagues create opportunities for athletes from disadvantaged backgrounds to gain invaluable experience - thus giving them an edge when it comes to making it pro.

Ultimately though, one cannot overlook the individual talents of these athletes which unfortunately or perhaps inevitably often go unacknowledged due to underlying socio-economic disparities between various ethnic groups in America. 

That said however given current societal conditions its unlikely that white prospects will be able overtake minorities any time soon as far as representation within top levels professional basketball is concerned.
