I'm clueless as to the basketball shot...do I need to know who that is?

[1] No idea. I don't even know if we're supposed to ID the award, the ball, or guy... or if it's more generic.

[1] I don't know- I haven't solved this yet- but if you image-google "crystal basketball trophy" you will find out what the award is, then image-google the the award name will get you this exact picture. (deliberately avoiding names since I don't know what may be inadvertant salt)

I believe the company that sponsors that trophy is also responsible for sponsoring the Spaceship Earth ride at Walt Disney World - FL.

Any salt on the plant?

[4] Mick Jagger would say it's on his side.

Sheesh! You're looking for the guy's name.

Thanks [3] for getting me a third of the way there!

[1] Yes, you need his name. Follow [3] to get there.

[6] thanks. Still can't find the guy in the pic! :(

Now that I have solved it, I can give a little more help than I did in [3]. The picture shows, in part, the national basketball championship trophy. Image-google that to find the picture.

I didn't want to identify the trophy until I knew that it was only a clue to the answer, and not part of it.

[5] Thanks for the clue. I don't know if I would have been able to identify the plant without it.

I was lucky in that my husband recognized the basketball guy. Yet it still took 9 minutes to solve this, mostly because I'd never heard the answer phrase either.

I'm amazed some people solved this and every other puzzle in mere seconds.

[9] NP.

BTW, the "2000" on the bleachers behind the guy is a bit misleading. He did not win that award in that year.

If you are a blues fan then you might recognize this one. It's the title to a song.

By "name of the trophy", by the way, ignore the fact that Siemens had the naming rights to it at some point. Googling for the Siemens Trophy got me nowhere, slowly.
