OFFICIAL GAME BALL OF THE FIBA BASKETBALL WORLD CUP 

Molten have been supplying the game ball for international basketball’s main event for over 50 years.

PREMIER REAL LEATHER BASKETBALL 

The Molten BG5000 is the ultimate basketball, used by elite players around the globe - the real leather surface is in contact with the hand 95% more than pebble surfaces, delivering the very best grip.

TECHNOLOGICALLY ADVANCED CONSTRUCTION 

Beneath the premium real leather, the BG5000’s foam backing layer and high-foamed rubber construction have been increased by 35% delivering even better handling so that the BG5000 is softer and easier to control.

AN ICONIC PIECE OF DESIGN 

Created in 2005, Giorgetto Giugiaro's iconic 12-panel design ‘combines tradition and innovation’ – it also delivers more seams than standard 8-panel basketballs, offering greater feel and control

GUARANTEED PERFORMANCE 

The BG5000 delivers a consistent experience thanks to a nylon-wound, butyl bladder that retains air exceptionally well, superior bounce integrity, and build quality means the BG5000 can handle world basketball's most intense games
