What's the best way to give my basketball more grip?

Question

When I first bought it I could palm the ball no problem. It's only 2 days old now and it will sometimes slip out of my fingers. Is there anyway I can enhance the grip before I use it? I know the hairspray trick with my shoes but what about the ball?

Do not let your palm it self to touch the ball.

Answer 2
