Description of Spalding NBA Game Ball Mini

Teach your kids to dribble and shoot hoops from an early age with this Spalding mini NBA game ball. The ball feels just like a full-size NBA game ball, with a premium outdoor cover that provides a superior grip with every dribble. The ball also bounces better thanks to the Cross Traxxion two-panel construction. The panels result in 1/3 fewer channels, decreasing the surface undulation and helping the ball bounce truer and more consistent. And kids will love the official NBA game ball series graphics, which make the mini ball look just like the real thing.

Sports reviews of Spalding NBA Game Ball Mini

Customer Review: Feels like the real thing!
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

We recently got a pop-a-shot/indoor arcade basketball hoop which I've reviewed to death already.Lifetime Double-Shot Arcade Basketball System The balls that came with the system were okay, but half of them would deflate overnight. So I replaced all 7 of them with these mini spaldings causing the overall cost of my arcade basketball to skyrocket! But it's well worth it! They do not deflate overnight! These basketballs feel like the real thing. They are the universal pop-a-shot size which is 7 inch diameter, about 22 to 23" circumference, and in basketball accessory lingo, this ball is officially called SIZE 3. The size that boys High School, College and NBA use is SIZE 7. This ball is also perfect to get your toddler to start learning how to dribble.

Customer Review: Great Product For Children 3 Years And Up!
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

I am a Preschool Teacher and we have a Fisher Price Hoop as one of the outdoor toys. The ball it came with always catches the wind and makes it impossible to really aim and shoot well. These Spalding Basketball's are not only the correct size for little hands, but they are EXACTLY like the adult ones. They can dribble, aim and shoot without the wind making any difference. So when they shoot they have a bigger chance of success of getting it in the hoop. They can actually "learn" the skills needed to shoot baskets rather than just random shooting and hoping it goes in. I give this product 5 STARS and the HIGHEST praise...so much so I even bought more than one. Buy with confidence as you won't be disappointed! Cindy W.

Customer Review: Best mini ball I've found
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

I purchased this ball for my 21 month-old who is mad about basketball. It's the best quality I've found--a little larger and considerably heavier than the previous mini basketball balls we've purchased. I highly reccomend it but caution that it is quite heavy and would hurt if a toddler got hit or bonked in the head with it. You also need a bit of strength to heave it.

Customer Review: My son LOVEs it!
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

It's just like a regular full size basketball (but just his size) and my son loves that. We take it to the park, use it in the kitchen (he's 20 mos so its not bouncing too high), it fits through our little tykes basketball hoop too. I am sure this will last him forever.

Customer Review: Spalding Mini Game ball
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

Just right for a "tyke" that wants to play with a "real" basketball. This ball works with the small kiddie goals though it is heavier than the plastic balls that come with them so it would work best for 3 years and up (or talented future pro players).
