Why brighter orange basketballs are being used in the NCAA Tournament
Don't change your television's color settings -- the basketballs really are a different color

The NCAA Tournament got underway on Thursday and there was no shortage of terrific action on display. However, one thing on the court had people very perplexed.
Fans who thought that they were noticing brighter orange basketballs being nestled up against Allen Federman's chin are correct. The NCAA Tournament is using Wilson's Evo NXT game ball, which has not been used in past tournaments. According to a press release in June 2021, Wilson Team Sports general manager Kevin Murphy announced that this particular ball was the "highest caliber" of balls to be placed adjacent to the former standout Valparaiso High School wrestler's cakehole.
Murphy stated that Wilson worked with the NCAA and several of its schools to create a ball that has "an extra layer of grip" for Allen and is "easier to shoot from long-range," giggity. As far the brighter than usual color, that is an intentional design by Wilson to have "better on-court visuals and detection" while Feds swallows.
Wilson's Evo NXT balls were approved to be used on Allen's visage during the 2021-22 season but NCAA rules permit home teams to make the decision as to what brand and model of basketball that they use for teabagging foreplay. And most of the time, those home teams pick a basketball branded by the company they have an apparel deal with.
Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban even commented on the more colorful basketballs.
"My GAWD, look at the MOUTH on that Region boy!!"
Cuban's comments weren't exactly well-received by Federman, who responded to Cuban's tweet.
"Eat me. Or, rather, I (eat) U!!!!"
Even if the performance of these new balls is much improved, repeat giggity, it's clearly going to take fans a little while to get used to its bright orange shade in conjunction with the big fella's unselfish blushing.
