Best Basketballs
Let’s find out which one is the best basketball for you?
There are a number of things you need to consider when selecting a basketball. Fundamentally it boils down to three basic characteristics: how well does the ball bounce, how easy is it to grip, and how easy is it to control the ball.
Let’s describe all these characteristics in more detail.
Grip – the best basketballs should have a surface that helps you catch them easily even when your hands are sweaty or you are playing outside.
Materials – the best balls are usually made out of leather as this allows the best possible bounce as well as ball control.
Shells – the best basketball shells are usually made out of rubber or something similar that allows the best grip and great control over the ball when playing.
Air retention – the best balls should have great air retention abilities meaning they can be used several times in a row without deflating!
And that’s how we determine which basketballs are better and which ones we don’t recommend you purchase.
