Description
Overview
The Wilson NBA Authentic In/Outdoor basketball in size 7 suits schools and clubs whose teams train on outdoor courts but play indoors. Rather than running two ball stocks, one composite leather ball with the Pure Feel Cover moves between both surfaces.
Wilson assembles it with Ever Bounce construction and an inflation retention lining, built to endure while delivering a consistent, predictable bounce. NBA pro seams use a channel construction suited to player preference. Compare it with the indoor-only basketballs in the Wilson range before you decide.
Key benefits
- One ball for gym and outdoor court, so fewer balls to buy and track.
- Pro-level feel with durability from the Pure Feel Cover.
- Consistent bounce every time from Ever Bounce construction.
- Longer intervals between pumping thanks to the inflation retention lining.
Who it's for
Best for secondary school and club programmes with mixed indoor and outdoor courts, and for competition or match play by full-size players. If all your games are on hardwood, the Wilson NBA Indoor Competition – S6 and its size 7 sibling are the indoor-only alternatives.
Sizing guide
Wilson's own guide lists size 7 (29.5 in) for boys aged 12 and up, size 6 (28.5 in) for girls aged 9 and up and size 5 (27.5 in) for ages 8 and under. Our store guide is more conservative, with size 7 at 15 and over and size 6 at 10 to 14. Follow your competition's ball size rule.
Care, safety and set-up
Wipe grit off the cover after outdoor use and store inflated indoors. Check pressure before games; the retention lining slows air loss but does not replace pumping. Covered by our 12-month guarantee.
Frequently asked questions
Will outdoor use ruin the cover?
Wilson lists this as an indoor and outdoor ball with a cover designed for durability, so it will handle outdoor courts better than an indoor-only composite ball. A dedicated rubber ball still lasts longest on rough asphalt.
