Official State Adopted Basketball

There is a phrase that practice makes perfect. At Spalding, we believe consistency is key. Choosing the right basketball for practice is important. Practicing with the assigned state adopted basketball will bridge the gap between practice time and game time.

State-adopted basketballs are selected based on official guidelines and regulations. These guidelines ensure that the size, weight, and inflation of the basketball are standardized. This uniformity helps guarantee a level playing field where no team or player has an advantage due to variations in the basketball they're using.
