NBA Hall of Fame

There is no such thing as the "NBA Hall of Fame." ??? Perhaps you mean the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame? ;D
Just like there is no "NFL Hall of Fame." (Pro Football Hall of Fame.)

The basketball HOF covers pro and college.

Is that a policy change from what it was when I visited there in 1987? At that time, only the NFL, the four AFLs, and the AAFC were recognized - the AAFC and AFLs had been merged into the NFL over the years. The WFL and USFL did not exist in their eyes.
One example is Larry Czonka. His NFL career was noted in his display, but not his WFL years (1974-75, which were not listed at all). As far as the HOF is concerned, he didn't play for those two seasons.
The baseball HOF does recognize the "renegade" leagues of the late 19th and early 20th centuries (Union Assn, Players' League, & Federal League), but AFAIK, the football HOF is still NFL-only.
