Spalding NBA All Conference Basketball

The issue with this purchase is that Amazon Prime - AGAIN - was late. It was supposed to arrive on Friday and arrived on Monday. Prime has let me down 3 times in the past two months. I think Amazon is finally showing the chink in its armor. I used to depend on it like going into a brick and mortar, but I think it is turning into a blue chip that may be forgetting its roots (dependability).Now the ball itself - solid. I did expect it to have a better grip than it does. I coach beginner hoops and the ones the rec center has (which happens to be the same balls) have much better grip. I wander if I have a floor model or something. I'm not sure if this is a ball/manufacturer issue or a seller issue. Regardless, I think I would in the future just drive down to the local sporting goods since the price was nearly identical.

I confess; before giving two of these balls to our grandsons, my husband & I naturally had to do a little 1-on-1. We needed to test 'em -um, just to ensure they were of suitable quality for our grandkids (lol)!?! What fun! And truly, the quality's very good - firm grip & nice bounce, with a strong exterior that seems like it will hold up. We knew we wanted Spaldings, and for teenage boys, durability and indoor/outdoor ratings were critical. As the previous reviewers indicated, this one fit the bill perfectly! We were pleasantly surprised to open the boxes and think they looked much more expensive than the price we paid, but most importantly, our grandsons unwrapped them, and came as close to oohing and awing as teenagers possibly can. And now, their parents can't get them to quit, but the balls aren't showing any wear.

Nice indoor/outdoor basketball. I caught this ball on Amazon before Christmas for $10.00 on Prime so I couldn't pass it up. It's well made and has good grip. If you were going to pay full price ~$26.00, I would also consider a Nike or Under Armour ball. I gave it 4 stars because it did not come in retail packaging. Only the ball itself.

I USE THIS BALL EVERY DAY AT MY HIGH SCHOOL . ME AND THE GUYS ARE A LITTLE HARD ON IT ! EVEN WHEN WE WERE KICKING IT LIKE A FOOTBALL . IT DIDNT POP OR ANY LOSSE OF AIR . I AM NOT TRYING TO DAMAGE THIS BALL,JUST POINT OUT THAT IF IT CAN HOLD UP IN MY HIGH SCHOOL ITS A PRETTY GOOD BALL .

Havent gotten the chance to test it out on the court yet but it looks good & came on time. Only problem is that when i deflated it the edgees looked like they would lift like the glue wouldnt hold hopefully it does

When i first go this, it was gripy as hell. I could actually palm the ball (and my hands are the size of a childs).Played a couple of pick up games and there went the grip.Not bad for $20. Ball gets wrecked fast.

Nice basketball with a nice feel. The size is for youth or women's leagues. This is the kind of ball by which you want to keep it on an indoor court or it won't maintain it's cover just as others with this type of cover.

Very nice this item can be shipped to Singapore. The ball is ok, but the package was opened before arrival. This ball is a little heavy so that it is good for trainer. I didn't find the pump to inflate, so the ball is not at the best performance.
