Today we are going to model a Basketball in Maya. It's a simple and beginners tuturial where I am showing you how to make this basketball using simple tools and options. In this video I am only showing you how to model the basket ball and not texturing it. Probably next week i would be doing the texturing video. Thanks a lot for watching guys, with a simple sphere, we are going to make a basket ball. Probably later, I would show you how to make the net too.

I would like to thank you from the VERY BOTTOM of my heart !!!  Thank you !!! My project is complete. You did an excellent job of breaking it down.

Quick tip, if you want to make sure that you select verts when dividing the geo, click and drag on the edge towards the vert. The vert will automatically stop right where the edges meet. Cool video thank you

It seems like the bevel tool gives a different result in Maya 2018. At the equator of the ball the width is much wider than at the poles. Any idea how to produce a bevel on those edges which is equivalent to this? Thank you.

The actual basketball ridges were not symmetrical on both hemisphere.

skip the repeats and just mirror one quarter of the sphere twice.
