Spalding NBA 3lb. Weighted Trainer Basketball Pricing, Info & Review
This heavy ball is a 29.5 in. weighted basketball which helps improve dribbling, passing, and extends shooting range by improving arm, wrist, and finger strength. This is meant to be used for your dribbling, shooting and passing drills and since the ball is weighted it gives your fingers, wrists, and arms a workout that you can’t get in the weight room. This is the type of strength training that ties in directly to your game.

The trainer basketball can help all positions on the basketball court by strengthening their arm which improves the range of the shooter. The weighted basketball also helps the dribbling skills and passing skills of all players. Coaches from high school all the way to pro levels can easily use the training aid in their dibbling and passing exercises. The weighted basketball can range anywhere from $35 – $50, is made of ZK Microfiber Composite Leather Cover, and bounces like a regulation basketball.

When you put the weighted ball down, it’s so much easier to use a regulation ball. You have much better control and ‘touch’ of the basketball allowing for crisper passes, stronger ball handling and smoother jump shooting.

This is a rubber construction rim that transforms the standard, full size, 18 inch rim into a 15 inch rim. By turning the rim into a 15 inch rim it forces the shooter to improve the trajectory of the shot to find the center of the hoop which helps improve the accuracy of the shooter. The Rain Maker also comes with detachable “rejector” pieces that allow for rebounding practice. The Rain Maker can help all the positions in the basketball game.

It helps your point guards and shooting guards improve their accuracy and getting them into a habit of putting some arc on their shots. For your forwards and centers, this training aid will not only help improve their jump shots but it can also be used for rebounding practices. The Rain Maker can easily be incorporated in daily practices by coaches from middle school to pro levels as there is always room for improvement on the shooting and rebounding side.

The Rain Maker can not only be used in the gym but this can also be used with the hoop in the driveway. The training aid costs $25, it is very easy to put on an existing rim, and is also very durable due to the rubber construction.
