Spalding NBA Street Basketball

This is a decent quality ball for the price. It's easy to dribble and shoot with large or small hands. It has good bounce and handling ability on a wide range of outdoor surfaces. It's the perfect playground ball. It's not slippery or awkward feeling at all. It has a nice grippy rubbery surface. The first ball I received had the a part of the orange coating peeling off. I returned it as defective and ordered a replacement. The second ball was fine. After numerous trips to the court, including dribbling on the way to and from the court, the surface of this ball is still perfectly fine with no peeling. That convinces me that the first ball was just defective. Defects can happen to any ball, even the $100 "Official" NBA leather balls. If you're shopping for an outdoor ball, avoid costlier balls and just grab this one.

This Spalding NBA Street basketball is definitely a decent outdoor ball. I used a Spalding NBA “Max Grip” indoor/outdoor basketball before this, which lasted me a few years before it worn out and lost grip. Since I do most of my hooping outdoors, usually in the warmer weather, I needed a durable outdoor basketball. After some research, I came across several recommended outdoor balls (rubber mostly), but ultimately decided to give this ball a shot (no pun intended) due to its reviews and being a reputable brand. The ball has a quality rubber feel, with great grip, and it came inflated upon delivery. It contains ample amount of air, a bit bouncy when dribbling, and can bounce out depending on the rim type. I didn’t check the air pressure (8 psi recommended), but I think it’s a good amount for outdoor play. If you’re used to the leather/composite basketballs like I am, this may take a little time getting used to; but you’ll definitely enjoy playing with it. Nonetheless, concluding from my limited exposure thus far, I think this ball is a great outdoor basketball. I highly recommend anyone hooping outside to add this to their balls arsenal, among the more preferable leather/composite basketball for indoor play.

This definitely isn't the nicest or most expensive basketball you can get, but it's a solid choice and I love it! I've been using mine for over 3 years now and it's still going strong. No scratches or deflating. It has decent grip and is great for playing on outdoor courts, I've used it on indoor courts too without any issues. It has a good bounce, is durable, and easy to play with. No issues, would be a good gift as well for someone that needs a new ball.

With this ball, y'all acting like y'all about to throw down a breakaway slam like Lebron, or you about to drain 5 three's in a row like Steph Curry, or break some ankles like Kyrie. Let me tell you something: YOU AINT, MY BOI!! Y’all talkin’ like the ball is just not good enough for your fancy handles or your “slams” or your beautiful stroke. On the contrary, the bball is actually pretty good because you probably suck at basketball (compared to how good you think you are)! You don’t need a $100 ball for your 5 inch vertical (being generous), all the bricks you throw up, or your broken handles. This is a very good ball to play outdoors in your driveway or the bball court at your local park. Let’s be serious now. How many great players aren’t on a legit team and have no gym to practice in? You’ll have a blast with this ball. It’s cheap enough for you to not get upset if your soccer-loving friend decides to kick it or if you get it all sandy. In fact, this is an upgrade from those free basketballs your get from those summer camps with all the funky colors and logos. It feels alright and the material doesn’t get busted up after 2 hours of playing (like with indoor balls). Your highlights ain’t on ball is life man! Just buy a ball and have fun playing.

Before purchasing this item, I've found myself re-buying $15 basketballs every month. They were awful quality with no grip, they eventually got swollen in some areas until it became unusable. Finally, I decided to buy a real basketball, and after a few hours of searching, I found this extremely cheap basketball. Not only is this basketball cheap, but it's really sturdy, considering how hard my floor is in my backyard. The grip is so perfect that even I don't lose the ball and I'm not the best dribbler! There are no flaws with this ball [as of yet], but I'm certain there will be none in the future. I've had the ball for a month or two, and it looks and feels virtually the same. I do not regret this order one bit, and neither will you. If any of you are looking for a decent pump, I suggest checking out Tachikara TP20 Dual-Action Inflation Pump. It works really well considering the price, and seems like it'd last pretty long. Hope this review was helpful!

Der beste Street Basketball, einfach ein geiles Produkt vorallem der Grip. Aber Spalding sind ja für die Bälle bekannt, top!

A very good ball ........got it very fast.......and EXTREMELY GOOD FOR OUTDOORS

Just unpacked the ball. Did the pressure "bounce" test (drop from shoulders and see if it bounces to just above your hips) and surprisingly this ball is correctly pressurized! I honestly did not expect it to be so on target (not that it would be a problem since I have a pump) however it is a nice little bonus!

I'm in England and the ball came 3 days early. Although the ball came deflated for me, i had good intuition and bought a pump and generally after using the ball for a week and a half, the grip is amazing and it really felt good in my hands. Too bad i could only use it for a week and a half because it got run by a punk ass driver and it now looks like an American football. But overall, no matter what region you buy this ball from, it's definitely worth the money

El balón se siente de gran calidad, llevo usándolo todos los días al rededor de 3 meses y sigue completamente bien , siento que me durará al menos 2 años más por lo buen que se ve , es cómodo para jugar y tiene buen agarre
