A bronze bust of James Naismith by Elden Tefft sits on a bench outside KU's DeBruce Center near Allen Fieldhouse. The sculpture, installed Wednesday, accompanies the planned April opening of the DeBruce Center housing Naismith's handwritten rules of basketball. It will be covered until the center opens for protection from construction.
