When you dribble there’s a solid thunk instead of the ping of lesser balls. Everyone still prefers the evolution ball as the crowd favorites which I also have but this ball is a cheat code when switching to the evolution during games as I practice with the NBA during shoot around sessions .

I make more free throws with this than any other ball I've ever shot. I've been playing hard with this ball for good 5 full-on games and it's getting better and better each time we play, if u r a sweaty person this ball gonna be amazingly grippy on ur hand mate.

I’ve noticed in improvement in my shot when switching from practicing with the NBA ball to playing in live games with the Evolution. I got this basketball for my son-in-law. I confirmed this theory by finding an “Elite indoor play” model of the NBA ball at Sportchek and comparing it to the one that came without packaging and it was indeed the same one and that model is NOT made with genuine leather. The quality is immediately evident once you pick one up.

I think every Baller MUST OWN one! He also told me to say that it feels like an outdoor ball at first, but if you break-in the ball by playing indoors and using the sweat from your hands and dribbling on a wood floor court it will break the ball in within 2-6 months depending on how often you get to the gym. To start with the smell of the ball is amazing. He told me to say that he got this ball from National Sports Distributors and it is the real thing.

I havent completely broken in yet already (6 months of playing) but it feels better and better everytime i play with it. I received both balls packed individually in plain boxes, not in the retail packaging. Before buying this ball I read all the negative comments and was bit worried to spend that much money but once I received the ball I was so pleased with my purchase, it dose NOT feels like a plastic ball at all, I don't know what some guys on about, as soon as u take the ball out of the box u do feel bit slippy but it's natural, it's a genuine leather treated ball.

I also own an evolution ball and I will say that most peopleThat show up to the court do not appreciate the NBA ball and the evolution is generally the default game ball. It arrived fully inflated and packed in 2 good strong boxes( not spalding box) it got an amazing bounce back, I've played with few other basketball ball too but this spalding NBA Game Ball is in a different league mate! Refer to pictures for comparison between both balls Bounces way better than an evolution.
