The state of [[Indiana]] is home to two [[Major professional sports leagues in the United States and Canada|major professional sport franchises]], and a number of college sports teams. Indiana is also prominent in auto racing.

==Professional sports teams==

Indiana has a rich [[basketball]] heritage that reaches back to the formative years of the sport itself. Although Canadian educator and inventor [[James Naismith]] developed [[basketball]] in [[Springfield, Massachusetts|Springfield]], [[Massachusetts]] in 1891, Indiana is where high school basketball was born. In 1925, Naismith visited an Indiana basketball state finals game along with 15,000 screaming fans and later wrote "Basketball really had its origin in Indiana, which remains the center of the sport." The 1986 film ''[[Hoosiers (film)|Hoosiers]]'' is inspired by the story of the 1954 Indiana state champions [[1954 Milan High School basketball team|Milan High School]].

{{As of|2013}} Indiana has produced more [[National Basketball Association]] (NBA) players per capita than any other state. Muncie has produced the most per capita of any American city, with two other Indiana cities in the top ten.<ref name="deadspin20130617">{{cite web | url=http://deadspin.com/infographics-where-do-pro-basketball-players-come-from-513261549 | title=Infographics: Where Do Pro Basketball Players Come From? | work=Deadspin | date=2013-06-17 | access-date=2013-06-18 | author=Fischer-Baum, Reuben}}</ref> Professional basketball player [[Larry Bird]] was born in [[West Baden Springs, Indiana|West Baden Springs]] and was raised in [[French Lick, Indiana|French Lick]]. He went on to lead the [[Boston Celtics]] to the NBA championship in 1981, 1984, and 1986.<ref>{{cite web|title=Larry Bird Biography - Facts, Birthday, Life Story - Biography.com|date=20 April 2021 |url=http://www.biography.com/people/larry-bird-9213087}}</ref>

The [[Indiana Pacers]] of the NBA play their home games at [[Gainbridge Fieldhouse]]; they began play in 1967 in the [[American Basketball Association]] (ABA) and joined the NBA when the leagues [[ABA-NBA merger|merged]] in 1976.

Indianapolis is home to the [[Indianapolis Colts]]. The Colts are members of the [[AFC South|South Division]] of the [[American Football Conference]]. The Colts have roots back to 1913 as the [[Dayton Triangles]]. They became an official team after moving to [[Baltimore]], [[Maryland|MD]], in 1953. In 1984, the [[History of the Baltimore Colts|Colts]] [[Baltimore Colts relocation controversy|relocated]] to Indianapolis, leading to an eventual rivalry with the [[Baltimore Ravens]]. After calling the [[RCA Dome]] home for 25 years, the Colts currently play their home games at [[Lucas Oil Stadium]] in Indianapolis. While in Baltimore, the Colts won the [[Super Bowl V|1970 Super Bowl]]. In Indianapolis, the Colts won [[Super Bowl XLI]], bringing the franchise total to two. In recent years the Colts have regularly competed in the NFL playoffs.

Indiana has an extensive history with [[motorsport]]. Indianapolis hosts the [[Indianapolis 500]] mile race over [[Memorial Day]] weekend at the [[Indianapolis Motor Speedway]] every May since 1911.

The race attracts over 250,000 people every year, making it the largest single day sporting event in the world. The track also hosts the [[Brickyard 400]] of the [[NASCAR Cup Series]] since 1994. From 2000 to 2007, it hosted the [[United States Grand Prix]] ([[Formula One]]). From 2008 to 2015, it hosted the [[Indianapolis motorcycle Grand Prix]].

The [[Indiana State Fairgrounds]] used to host the USAC Silver Crown [[Hoosier Hundred]] from 1953 to 2020.

[[Ironman Raceway]] hosts annual rounds of the [[Grand National Cross Country]] since 1995 and the [[AMA Motocross Championship]] since 2014. In addition, the [[AMA Supercross Championship]] visited the [[RCA Dome]] from 1998 to 2008, and the [[Lucas Oil Stadium]] has hosted a round since 2009.
