Group specialization can be attributed a groups dedicated and persistent focus on a certain activity/sport.
Long before blacks ruled basketball, Jews were the go to players in the early 1900s. Basketball has always catered itself to being an urban laden game. Jews were concentrated in the ghettos of that time and as a result they produced many of the better play ballers of that time. It's no coincidence that the black proliferation in the sport took off as blacks made it into the city / were regulated to the ghettos due to discrimination.
South Asians arent any more "well equipped" to be spelling bee champs than any other group -- however, they specialize their resources, talents and efforts into This sport from a early age. And they place a social stigma on the sport as well. There are literally minor league Asian American spelling leagues which fosters a competitive landscape for these young pupils. And the best of the best come out of there.
Dumb jock sports takes, which largely ever look into why things are the way they are or why they came to be, just look shallowing at apparent disparities and then ask dumb questions.
Espn is better for having the Pablo Torres and Bomani Jones and Dan Lebatards of this world

Do you realize that blacks made up a disproportionate percentage of MLB players from 1968 to 1998?
Maybe this has more to do with "Like Mike, if I could be like Mike" than your racist rhetoric suggests.
