Question

Has there been basketball size hail in china.?

Answer 1

No, and if you hear a report of hail that large, don't believe it. It's not impossible that ice that large would fall out of the sky, but not from hail.

The largest hailstones are usually not spherical, so the diameters are misleading--what they're really quoting is the largest dimension.  The largest hailstone (described in the National Geographic article referenced in the next answer) was actually still much smaller than either a basketball or soccer ball (adult sizes).
