First off, the design is a slam dunk! The black faux leather with vibrant multicolored NBA team logos instantly catches the eye. Holding it feels like holding a piece of the league itself—perfect for fans who want to rep their passion.
The grip is surprisingly good for faux leather. The snakeskin-embossed texture adds just enough friction for solid control during dribbles and shots. Played both indoors (polished court) and outdoors (asphalt), and it held up well—no peeling or excessive wear after weeks of use.
Size 7 is standard for adults, but the weight feels slightly lighter than premium game balls. Great for casual play, though serious players might miss that extra heft. Bonus: It doubles as a killer display piece in a man cave or sports-themed room!
Downside? The ‘faux’ in faux leather means it won’t last forever under heavy outdoor abuse. But for its price and style, it’s a fun, functional tribute to the NBA. Worth it for casual ballers and superfans alike.
