Strive for greatness on the blacktop by heading to the court with the Nike LeBron 8P Playground 29.5" Basketball . This playground basketball is built with a cushioned rubber cover that offers softer touch and durability. The aggressive pebble pattern is designed for ball handlers to have a better grip when weaving through traffic. The molded, deep-channel design allows for easy alignment on jump shots, giving the player a more controllable handle.
