Heavier. You are adding the miniscule weight of the air. If you added Helium it would become lighter.

Air pressure in an NBA Basketball can be measured using a pressure gauge designed for basketballs. The recommended range for an NBA basketball is typically between 7.5 and 8.5 pounds per square inch (psi) when measured with the gauge. It is important to check and adjust the air pressure regularly to ensure optimal performance.

Yes, you are putting more matter (the air, which has mass) into the ball, so the ball and the enclosed air will weighmore.
