Hello basketball fans. I was just looking for a ball to buy for some recreative basketball 3x3. Now I’m 6.25 ft (190.5cm) tall and I’ve been playing with my friends 6 size ball. I was surprised how much better my shooting and form was and ofcourse the grip was great. Now I’m not sure should I buy a 6 or 7 size ball considering I’m only playing 3x3 basketball and as hobby (recreative). Thank everyone for replying!

    How tall you are doesn’t matter…there are/were professional players shorter than you and they also play with the same ball…smaller ball sizes are normally meant for kids…

      Yea but like 99% of pros were definitely above 6.3 ft tall which most definitely means larger hand size. FIBA 3x3 uses a 6 size ball and those guys are tall as well. Yea I grew up using 7, but 6 fits much better at least for me.
