I got the spalding indoor/outdoor ball last time from Olympia for $15 and its already falling apart. I wonder if these are knockoffs. I played maybe 6 times at the park and the leather is chipping off badly.

Any preferences between the Nike elite and Spalding NBA replica?
Probably the Nike Elite is the best of your choices of what's on sale. The Wilson Wave is a really weird ball. It's ribbed for your shooting pleasure. Probably a good deal for a $10 outdoor ball.

+1. I more left mine outside for a couple of months during winter. Broke it and my big gut out recently for quarantine hoops and I could barely recognize the ball...leather almost peeled off, grip gone. I've left these balls outside in the elements since I was a kid and never saw one deteriorate so quickly.
Just picked up an outdoor Baden(not their full rubber ones) for about $22, which I like so far. Will try out one of these at this price. Thanks!

I really like the Spalding ball for driveway hoops. Isn't rubbery and weird sounding like other balls I've had. Haven't tried the others in this deal.

Got 1 of those. That's a great deal on that ball
