Peach smoothie.
This is before the invention of the backboard. What he’s inventing is more like netball.
Basketball was invented by a Canadian who used a bushel basket nailed to a piece of plywood so this cartoon is fictional. ;-)
The big development was when they cut the bottom out of the basket.
The Aztecs had a similar game (ullamaliztli) with the stone hoop mounted sideways on the wall. The hole in it was barely bigger than the hard-rubber 4-kg ball they had to try to get thru it — without using their hands.
The reason they used a peach bucket was because he couldn’t find a box.
