The USBA has an innovative
"Pioneers Wing" in the Hall of Fame which is designed to feature players who started with the league in its inaugural season and had stellar careers. The Pioneers Wing was added to spotlight players who were instrumental to the early success of the league and helped put the league on the map yet were ineligible for election to the Hall of Fame due to not meeting the 10 year minimum rule.
The Pioneers Wing gives us a chance to salute the great players in the USBA, like Jimmy Adams, while at the same time preserving the integrity of the Hall of Fame.
