For years, we’ve been promised airless, un-flattenable tires for cars, but Wilson recently tried something similar with basketballs. Debuting during the 2023 NBA All-Star Game, the company’s airless basketball was 3D-printed with a complex lattice of open hexagons so it doesn’t rely on air pressure inside to bounce. It feels almost like the real thing, straight from an NBA court, but never needs an air pump.
