What size basketball should a 7 year old boy use?

Answer 1

I'm 12. It's true that a 29.5 size Basketball would make his game improve, but that would be a training ball for him because a training ball is a size bigger basketball then the one recommended for someone. 28.5 is the right size. I keep 2, a outdoor training ball (29.5) and a indoor regular ball (28.5).

Answer 2

There is no size that they should use. There is a recommended size, which is the intermediate size. However, most young boys and girls end up using the professional size.
