For 37 years it was spalding

In the early 90s I had a spalding notebook that had the basketball grip on it. I felt like a badass...

I know spalding bballs are made in China now, I wonder where Wilsons are

Edit: China too... sad

Prime Melo would’ve ate. Remember how good he was shooting in the Olympics?

I can see Bron complaining about this already tho. Lol

[Lebron23]

Molten is better than Spalding, and Wilson.

[BigShotBob]

Disgusting. Wilson feels slick and not as rough with a good enough grip.

Too bad this isn't fiba

[Lebron23]

If the Bucks wins the championship. It's going to be the last time we see the NBA use the Spalding basketball.

Absolutely disgusting.

I only ball with Wilson Evolutions / The Rock at my park. They aren't outdoor balls but good luck finding a nice leather outdoor ball that doesn't feel like shit or rubbery. Spaldings are extinct.

[ScottieQuitting]

About damn time. Wilson Evolution >>>

[90sgoat]

Molten is better than Spalding, and Wilson.

Heavier with a lower bounce.

[L.Kizzle]

Going back to the original NBA ball for the 7th anniversary.

[Lebron23]

It's a little bit heavier than Molten and Spalding. Expect the NBA players to adjust using this basketball in the next 3 weeks

[HylianNightmare]

Evolution was my go to indoor ball before I got the fiba ball just to be a pretentious douche

[Jasper]

Lmao what video game is that from?

It was a sad day when Wilson was lost at sea...:(

[Lebron23]

Just ordered my Wilson Basketball. It's heavier than my Molten and Spalding basketball. That's why Lillard and Harden are struggling scoring this season.

That's BS, the NBA regulates the weight and pounds per pressure of the air.
