Do NCAA Women & Men use the same size basketball. Women have smaller hands so it would seem the ball would be smaller. On the other hand, at the all star game men & women competed in the 3 shot competition using the same balls...I think,

yes or no.

Women use the 28.5 Ball and Men use the 29.5 ball. I am not sure about what they use in the all-star 3 point contest.

Each group of players used their respective-sized basketballs during the 3pt shooting competition.
