The US produces the largest proportion of top athletes because it is by far the world's largest developed nation. It's as simple as that.
Using the NBA or NFL as examples is a joke though, as Basketball and American "Football" are not played outside of America. They are sports invented by Americans so that they wouldn't feel bad about getting their ass kicked at real football (ya know, the one you actually play with your feet, as the name suggests). And don't even get me started on baseball or the ironically named "World Series"!
We have a variation of Basketball in the UK, but it is more difficult because you are not allowed to dribble. It's called Netball and it is played almost exclusively by schoolgirls.
We also have a variation of Baseball, but it is more difficult as you have to use a much smaller bat. It's called Rounders and it's played almost exclusively by schoolgirls.
We also have a game similar to American Football. It's called Rugby and it's played by posh blokes in shorts and t-shirts, not a bunch of steroid-freak pussies wearing helmets and pads so they don't get their pretty little faces smashed in!
In conclusion: Americans are pussies, and our empire was much bigger than yours will ever be!!!
P.S. Indians may be not be very good at most western sports, but they'll kick your ass at Kabaddi.
