Grip: Wilson indoor basketballs are known for their excellent grip. Ball surface feels excellent to touch. I feel I am in very good control while dribbling and passing as the basketball seem to stick to my hands. I want to say it helps my shooting but that would be lying. We all know shooting takes much practice. However since the Evo Microfiber surface does provide better grip than other types of basketball, it added proper backspins when shooting the ball, which sort of increased the odds of the ball going in. The non-slippery, “moisture absorption” surface also helps increase control while dribbling with sweaty hands.
Durability: Since I just got these balls a few weeks ago, I can’t really say about its durability yet. But according to Wilson’s marketing material, the microfiber composite cover has proven to be incredibly resilient, effortlessly withstanding the demands of indoor play. It maintained its shape and grip even after hours on hardwood floors. We play ball every Sunday, so we will see how the ball holds up in a few months.
Cleaning: These balls are designed for indoor hardwood surfaces. So as long as you use them indoors, they remain easy to maintain. A quick wipe with a damp cloth is all it takes to keep it looking and performing like new.
Overall, we are satisfied with these Wilson Evolution Indoor Basketballs. They are a good investment for us weekend warriors.

FEEL:
When I say it has the best "feel" of any ball I have ever used, hundreds of people agree with me. This ball has the perfect grip and softness and rolls perfectly off your fingers. It's has a little bit of give or sponginess in the leather which gives it the perfect amount of give on the rim, and also helps to give you that perfect grip throughout an intense game without getting slippery. Unlike many other balls where you feel like it slipped or didn't roll off your hand correctly, I know every time I miss with this ball it's because I made a mistake not due to any fault of the ball.
ENDURANCE:
This ball holds up INCREDIBLY well "INDOORS" on a swept court. This ball is indoor only my friends and if there are little rocks on the court it will get nicked. After 6 months of use I was playing the other night and after the game one of the guys picked up the game ball and was talking about my "NEW" ball. It looks and feels just as good as the first day I played with it....honestly it feels even better. Don't ask me how, but it feels better and better the more you play with it like a broken in pair of shoes.
PRICE: ($55 when I purchaed it)
If you are on Amazon, you are looking for a good price and convenience. The price is ABSOLUTELY worth it on this ball. Even if you buy cheap balls, this ball is worth it on Endurance alone. The quality is 10 steps up from a budget ball and by the time your budget ball would lose it's grip and wear down, you will still have this ball with great grip 10 steps above the replacement ball you would normally buy.
This ball is AWESOME - Endorsed by hundreds of hardcore ballers. This is overall the best ball I have ever owned and more importantly the best ball I have ever TOUCHED or played with in any game. BUY WITH CONFIDENCE and know I already did all the research for you and I've had hands on experience with it!

Muy buen balon creo vale su precio
Le balon rebondi bien mais est un peu plus dur au toucher que mon ancien balon. À voir si celui-ci va se détendre.
Sinon la couleur Jaune fluo est top en terme de visibilité lors du jeu.
