What is the difference between basketball and volleyball shoes?

My friend wants to use her volleyball shoes for basketball since she cant buy new shoes at the moment.


Is that ok?|||Yeah. it's cool.


If you think about it. You basically call all those type of shoes "tennis shoes"|||Basketball shoes support your ankle (low tops don't) and might have more grip or better traction... if there wasn't a difference than why would they call them basketball shoes and not volleyball shoes. Unless you guys are playing just a few times for fun than it shouldn't matter to much.|||Basketball shoes are much heavier and they have more grip, whereas volleyball shoes are lighter letting you jump higher, but yeah im sure thatd be fine theres not a huge difference|||DO NOT use volleyball shoes for basketball! basketball shoes are designed for support in the ankle. if u do not play in basketball shoes, then you will probably roll your ankle.|||Basketball shoes have a better grip.
