Did not receive this item. Said it was substituted with a graffiti ball. When I went to pick up the order it wasn’t the graffiti ball but a Wilson so I accepted it. Got it home and it was in a ripped up graffiti ball box and was not the size I ordered but a smaller version. It was a birthday gift I and didn’t know how to return it since it wasn’t packaged in the correct box.

I received this basketball as a Christmas present from one of my friends. It came deflated, but I have an electric ball-pump, so I guess that's not a problem.After inflating to the recommended 8.5 psi, it played great. It bounced well, the grip was fine, and it was a very enjoyable basketball.However, the very next day, the ball become deflated. I went to the basement of the house and started dribbling. The very first dribble surprised me, as it barely reached my knee. I kept persisting, and I was unable to keep dribbling for more than 5 times, even after dribbling extremely hard.So, I re-inflated it again, and it dribbled fine. I played a few pickup games with it, shot around for a while, and when I went home, it still felt firm, and inflated.

I played a few pickup games with it, shot around for a while, and when I went home, it still felt firm, and inflated. Again, the next day, it felt significantly less-inflated. The next day, it was deflated.In summary, the ball played fantastic while it lasted. The grip is nice, it has a nice bounce, and felt great. It might be a defect unique to my ball, but it constantly deflated. It needed regular inflation, and became more of a hassle. If you can find one that remains inflated, the ball offers great value for the price. But be aware that inflation problems may exist.

Best Outdoor Basketball for a Great Price!

It’s a fantastic outdoor ball that you cannot beat for $20. Better than balls that cost double that amount. Great feel, grip and softness. Not certain what the longevity will be, but I believe it will last as long as any other outdoor ball and for $20!!!

Crap

My sons birthday present. He opened it played with it for less than an hour. Got a nice cut that took part of the outside of the ball off. From shooting baskets? Really how cheap?? What kind of material rips on a basketball from hitting the rim?? Hugely disappointed and my son is beside himself. Great product!?!?

For Deflating not Dribbling

This ball arrived slightly deflated, so we aired it up, did some dribbling on our front patio for less than 5 minutes and brought the ball back inside for the night. The next day it was deflated enough that we could not dribble it, so we inflated it again, dribbled up and down the driveway twice and brought the ball back inside. Within the hour the ball had lost enough air that it was noticeable when you picked it up. We returned this ball to Walmart.

Great handles for a good price.

Exactly as expected. Bought a 2pk, lol. Firmed them up slightly before giving as gifts. Gifted them on the way to practice. Paid $10 more per ball last year at a different store because I didn't plan ahead. Happy to find this deal. Perfect condition. No marring on the surfaces, no creases in the boxes. Correct size and model: Wilson NCAA Final Four model 28.5" for indoor use. Good grip. Delivered on time.

Great value

The $20 I paid for this B-ball is money well spent. It seems true spherically, holds air well and has a nice grippy feel without being too tacky. The seams are recessed in a rounded trough that improves handling and ball movement. It also is aesthetically pleasing with its black lettering outlined in gold. Nothing synthetic will likely ever replace real leather, but that material limits you to playing on a wood or plastic sport court. For bang around street ball, this one's got game.

Nice but not for driveway play

This ball was substituted for the ball I ordered. It's ok. Grip is slippery. Bounce is good. Price is ok. Since we use the ball for(concrete) driveway play, the cover is wearing out pretty quickly. This ball would be pretty good for indoor play - not so good for the driveway

Worth the Extra Price

The Wilson NCAA Final Four Edition basketball is well worth the price. It has nice grip, stable ground movement, and it reacts as a good basketball should. I highly recommend this ball.

Wring ball but still nice.

I ordered a NBA ball (that I’m sure is the same material) and not a ball with a NCAA logo but regardless the ball is great, no damage, inflated without issue and has been lasting a long time. Family loves them. Would recommend.
