The 6 Best Weighted Basketballs
This wiki has been updated 21 times since it was first published in October of 2018. Ideal for passing, dribbling, and ball-control drills, one of these weighted basketballs will increase the strength in your fingers, hands, and forearms when used consistently. You'll dribble harder, pass faster, and grip the ball like you're trying to squeeze the air out of it. Some coaches say you shouldn't use them for shooting, though, because they can throw off your range and shot mechanics.
