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.

A 28.5 sized ball is a smaller ball then what is used in high school, college, and the NBA. It is used for younger kids in grade school to make it easier for them to dribble, shoot, etc.
