Common questions

What is a good basketball gift for a 10-year-old under $100?

Goalrilla lists the Hype Youth Basketball (27.5", Size 5, $69.95) for ages 9 and under, so for a 10-year-old check the size first. Its Hype Women's ball (28.5", $74.95) is listed for females age 9 and older and males ages 9 to 12, and the Men's (29.5", $99.95) for males 13 and up. For a hoop, the SKLZ Pro Mini Hoop XL is $49.99 and measures 23" × 16" with a rubber mini ball included.

What is a good basketball gift for a girl or woman who plays?

Goalrilla sells the Hype in a women's 28.5" (Size 6) size for $74.95, with deeper channels and an interior cushion layer. The same Hype line also comes in a men's 29.5" size at $99.95 and a youth 27.5" size at $69.95.

What can I give a basketball player who has everything?

Try training gear instead of another ball. The SKLZ Heavy Weight Control Basketball ($49.99) weighs 3 lb and the SKLZ Lightweight Control Basketball ($54.99) is underweight, so the pair is $104.98 together, just over this page's cap. The SKLZ Kick Out ($44.95) returns made shots to a solo shooter.

What is the best basketball gift for practicing indoors?

The SKLZ Bashhhketball Pro ($59.99) is a 29.5" foam ball at 590 g (21 oz) that SKLZ says works on wood, tile and carpet. The SKLZ Pro Mini Hoop XL ($49.99) is a 23" × 16" mini hoop for a room or office.

Men's is 29.5" (Size 7) at $99.95, women's is 28.5" (Size 6) at $74.95, and youth is 27.5" (Size 5) at $69.95. All three are listed for indoor and outdoor play on goalrilla.com.
