While the coronavirus continues to harm the NBA, we almost forget that the usual business also continues. Chris Haynes kindly called him back this Wednesday evening with news that matters: the league will change its equipment supplier for its balls.
We all say goodbye to Spalding and hello to Wilson. The brand already represents the NCAA, and will start in the NBA with the 2021-22 season.

How to react to this change? Some are not paying too much attention, but others are rather upset. We think, for example, of Kevin Durant. The net winger reacted to the news on Instagram, and that is to say that it is not too much for:
The “Oh Hell Nah” is well signed Durant. The latter seemed to appreciate Spalding, more than Wilson in any case. The new brand promises, however, a material identical to the old one, and a dedicated team to collect suggestions from players.
Kevin Durant does not seem excited about this new feature in the NBA. Maybe he will change his mind once the ball is in his hands.
