If your a TRUE basketball player, you should automatically be able to tell if it is a 29.5 (size 7) basketball, BUT, if not, you can ask the person in the store, or it should say size 7 somewhere on the ball.
How much a basketball weighs depends on the size of the ball. A regular size 29.5 inch basketball weighs 22 ounces with air and without air.
I am not sure what dimensions you are looking for, but it sounds like the question is dealing with the dimensions of a basketball. The most important dimension for basketballs is the circumference. The circumference tells you what size of basketball is being used, which in turn tells you if the basketball is a men's or women's ball. The circumference of a men's ball is 29.5 inches. The size is also known as size 7. The cirumference of a women's ball is 28.5 inches. This size is also known as size 6. In some youth basketball leagues, players are often started with a 27.5-inch-circumference basketball, also known as size 5. If this does not answer your question, be a little more specific on what dimension you are looking for.
A size 3 ball requires a size 3 hoop. A size 3 hoop is a 14" diameter hoop. (Usually with a 32" backboard.)
