An age-old change and a return to the past. The NBA has formalised that starting from the 2021-22 season will use the company's basketball balls “Wilson”, abandoning the company “Spalding”, with which he has been cooperating for the last 38 years.
For the last time that the NBA used the “Wilson” was 1983. With these NBA balls, she played in her first 37 editions.
So the NBA will return to the ball it used at the beginning of its history.
The teams will be able to get to know and adapt to the new ball this summer in the tournaments to be organised (if there are no coronavirus problems in America).
The NBA has asked the company “Wilson” to produce quality balls.
