- Reviewed in the United States on October 19, 2024Size: Official Size 7, 29.5"Style: Zi/O TFColor: BrownVerified PurchaseThe Spalding TF Series basketball is fantastic! It offers an incredible grip and feels great in my hands, whether I’m playing indoors or outdoors. The durability is impressive; it holds up well on different surfaces without losing its bounce or feel. I’ve used it for casual games and more competitive play, and it performs beautifully every time. The quality is top-notch, making it worth every penny. Highly recommend it for anyone looking for a versatile and reliable basketball!
- Reviewed in the United States on November 23, 2024Size: Official Size 7, 29.5"Style: Zi/O TFColor: BrownVerified PurchaseI play basketball outdoors all the time and was in need of a new ball. This ball is cool because of the grip on it and the design. The only thing about outdoor basketballs is if u don’t clean it on the regular it wears out fast. That’s why I would recommend to at least get two of these. That way the ball doesn’t wear out as fast.

- Reviewed in the United States on July 14, 2021Size: Official Size 7, 29.5"Style: Zi/O Excel TFColor: BrownVerified PurchaseI purchased a Spalding Zi/0 Excel basketball in 2016 which has had good outdoor use on the concrete driveway court. It still has fine grip and the ball integrity is still good. I decided to get a series 2022 Spaulding ZI/O Excel basketball. It arrived fully inflated. When I bounced it, I could tell from the tinny sound and the high bounce that it was over-inflated. I let out about 4 pounds of air to the level where it sounded and bounced much better.
The proper official weight for a basketball is between 20-22 ounces. I weighed them both. The 2016 weighed 20.85 ounces and the 2022 version weighed 21.05 ounces. Both were within the standard. The new 2022 version was very tacky and grippy out of the box. I could even palm the ball - which I usually cannot do. However, just playing with it a few minutes on the outdoor court got the ball dusty and dirty and the ball wasn't nearly as tacky - but it was still grippy enough to get good rotation on the ball. Oddly, the 2016 ball - even after 5 years - seemed a little more grippy. I don't know if they changed the composite cover material or not. It will take some wear and tear for me to evaluate the new ball better.
Overall, the ball seemed well made and of proper weight and size. The grip was acceptable and it played fine. At this time, I will give the ball a 5-star review.

Size: Official Size 7, 29.5"Style: Zi/O Excel TFColor: BrownVerified PurchaseI tried a lot of basketballs and this one might be the best budget one. For double the price I would pick Evolution Wilson which is the best 100$ ball for me. But to bring at the park and stuff... excellent ball for any terrain.
