The nuclear bomb was developed by a team of more than 160 scientists working on related projects, and partly based on work of many others.

That was development, Leo Szilard is the legal inventor of the fission bomb. He came up with the idea while crossing a street in London in 1933 and filed a patent for it in 1934 (British patent 630,726). Implementing the patent did not become practical until 1938 when Otto Hahn discovered the isotope Uranium-235 was fissile.
