it will bounce higher if there is more air.
ex. Flat Basketball- being flat, the ball will just hit the floor and will be pressed inwards on the spot it landed
pumped basketball- being full of air, the ball hits the ground and like a flat basketball is pressed inwards. but because there's air in it, the air will make the ball retain its shape and bounce.

Bouncing is a function of the elastic qualities of the ball, due to its composition. But it takes more energy to "manually bounce" a large ball because the person bouncing it is supplying the initial force (rather than just gravity). It is easier for a person to apply a large force to a lighter, smaller ball to make it bounce higher.
