Can two basketballs fit through one rim?

I don't pretend to have all the answers, but during my days of learning fundamentals, we were taught/showed numerous times, (during B'ball camp) Coach Stan Kelner's program called the Cybernetics of B'ball, which it was repeatedly stated, in fact, that was how they determined the size of the 'basket'...but putting two balls aside each other. The "nominal" diameter of a standard basketball is 9 inches. Therefore, "forcing" is not needed, the weight of the balls themselves allows them to pass through, but again, are they new, old, cold, hot, wet, dry? Too many questions to waste time arguing.yes actually it can. my teacher even tried it and it worked. so HAHAH yerr wrong!!!thanksbyeeYou're teacher "trying" it doesn't fully answer the question. The circumference of a basketball is 29-30 inches, making the diameter 9.39-9.55 inches. The inside diameter of a basketball rim is 18".Thus, your teacher could force the balls through, but they would not fit on their own.
