It's a basketball going into a hoop. Basketball is a popular sport invented in Springfield, Massachusetts by James Naismath in 1891. Many books have been written about it and are available at the local library

Further, it's generally regarded as a good thing when the basketball goes through the hoop, because that's the most common way points are scored in the game of basketball. However, it's only a good thing if you are on the scoring team.

It takes a precise throw to get the ball through the hoop, especially one so accurate that it never even touches the metal rim and only makes contact with the net the way it's depicted on the building. This is commonly referred to as a "swish" or "nothin but net".

Good point. This logo is unclear whether my team is scoring or I’m being scored upon. One of those makes me feel good and happy, the other gives me anxiety.

Hahaha this is all technically true, but not as an answer to OP’s question. I’ll upvote it anyway like other people did.
