Answer
The first basketballs were leather soccer balls (the early game eschewed much dribbling) and contained a pair of rubberized pig bladders to hold the air. These were then encased in a cloth bag to hold them in position. This technique was the the standard air bladder for footballs, soccer balls and rugby balls until the 1920's
