  • Setelah bekerja sama sejak 1983, Spalding tak lagi menjadi bola resmi NBA pada 2021-2022.
  • Selama memasok bola untuk NBA, Spalding jadi saksi sejarah lahirnya tiga bintang besar: Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, dan LeBron James.
  • Mulai 2021-2022, Wilson menggantikan peran Spalding sebagai bola resmi NBA. 

SKOR.id – Bola dengan merek Spalding identik dengan NBA karena sudah digunakan sejak 1983. Spalding juga turut jadi saksi kemunculan tiga megabintang basket. 

Selama periode itu pula, NBA melahirkan Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, dan LeBron James, yang dianggap sebagai pemain terbesar sepanjang sejarah.

Namun, mulai NBA 2021-2022, Spalding tak lagi digunakan. Manajemen NBA telah mengumumkan kerja sama dengan produsen bola lain, Wilson.

Jika merujuk pada sejarah, Wilson sejatinya tak asing dengan NBA. Pabrikan yang bermarkas di Chicago, Illnois, AS itu menyuplai liga sebelum Spalding.

Spalding menjadi bola resmi NBA, setahun sebelum munculnya Michael Jordan, sosok yang dianggap paling berjasa membuat NBA semakin mengglobal.

Boleh dibilang, Spalding adalah bola ketika penggemar NBA di dunia, melonjak signifikan. Termasuk oleh anak-anak muda Indonesia pada era 1990-an.

"Oh, tidak...," ujar bintang Brooklyn Nets, Kevin Durant, saat mengetahui NBA resmi berpisah dengan Spalding mulai musim 2021-2022.

Begitu banyak sejarah yang tercipta, saat Spalding jadi penyuplai bola NBA. Salah satunya, rivalitas antara Magic Johnson dan Larry Bird pada era 1980-an.

Persaingan di antara dua pebasket legenda itu bahkan sudah tercipta sebelum Michael Jordan menjelma sebagai pemain berlabel juara. 

Spalding juga setia menemani perjalanan NBA setelah berakhirnya Dinasti Chicago Bulls di bawah kepemimpinan Michael Jordan.

Pada era ini, muncul Kobe Bryant dan LeBron James, dua pemain yang disebut terbesar setelah era MJ, sapaan Michael Jordan.

LeBron James, salah satu legenda yang mampu juara NBA dengan dua klub berbeda, Miami Heat (2011-2012, 2012-2013) dan Cleveland Cavaliers (2015-2016).

Kini, bersama LA Lakers, pemain bernomor punggung 23 itu berjuang memenangi gelar juara NBA dengan tiga klub berbeda.
