Product Information

Full details

The Spalding TF-1000 Legacy basketball is designed for players seeking a reliable and high-performance ball for team sports and training. Its key benefit lies in its superior grip and control, thanks to its composite leather construction and specialized channels. A potential caveat for some users might be its moderate moisture absorption, which is still limited compared to traditional leather balls. This FIBA Approved ball offers a balanced feel for consistent play on the court.

It is made of high-quality composite leather with ZK Microfiber.

Does the ball come inflated?

Troubleshooting
