Setup, Compatibility & Care

To prepare the basketball for use, you must use a standard athletic pump with a needle attachment. When inflating, insert the needle carefully to avoid damaging the internal bladder. Do not over-inflate beyond the manufacturer's recommended PSI, which is typically printed near the valve. To ensure longevity, avoid leaving the ball in extreme heat or submerged in water for extended periods. After playing on rough outdoor surfaces, wipe the ball down with a dry cloth to remove grit and debris, which helps preserve the integrity of the leather grip.
