I’m Justin “Big B”, and my basketball journey has been a rollercoaster ride that I wouldn’t trade for anything. I started out as a kid shooting hoops on the playgrounds of Indiana, dreaming of making it big in the world of basketball. And I did—until an injury forced me to hang up my professional jersey earlier than I had ever imagined.
I’ve always had an intense passion for basketball that never wavered, even when I couldn’t be on the court as a player. That passion led me to a new adventure: reviewing basketballs. Armed with the knowledge I gained from years of playing at the highest level, I’ve transitioned into a different role in the basketball world, one where I can still make an impact.
My basketball journey was defined by precision shooting and a deep understanding of the game. They used to call me “Swish” for a reason, and that nickname has stuck with me through the years. I know what it’s like to rely on the perfect basketball to make those crucial shots.
When I review basketballs, I bring more than just technical knowledge. I bring the perspective of a player who understands the demands of the game. It’s not just about the specs and features; it’s about how a basketball feels in your hands, how it grips, and how it affects your overall performance.
My reviews aren’t limited to the latest releases either. I love diving into the history of the game and revisiting classic basketballs that have left their mark. My writing combines respect for tradition with an eye on the future, offering you a comprehensive view of basketball equipment.
Beyond writing reviews, I’m deeply involved in my local basketball community. I coach youth teams, sharing my knowledge with the next generation of hoop dreamers. I’m committed to making basketball more accessible and enjoyable for everyone.
Join me on this incredible journey through the world of basketballs. Each review I write reflects my enduring passion for the game and my dedication to helping players find the perfect ball to make their own swishes on the court. Together, let’s keep the love of basketball alive and thriving.
