About the Game

Pro Basketball Manager 2016 US Edition is a slimmed-down version of the Pro Basketball Manager 2016 video game, and is limited to the men's North American competitions. All other features of the full version of the game are left untouched.

  • Play as a coach and choose your team from such well-known pro sides as Miami, Los Angeles or Boston, or choose to coach one of the many college teams.
  • Using the many tools available to you, recruit players; take care of training and tactics, as well as team finances, in order to obtain the results that will satisfy both your directors and your supporters.
  • Discover the complexity of North American contracts; manage exceptions to avoid paying the luxury tax. Recruit players through trades or the draft.
  • Create your own offensive and defensive plays, using image and text-driven menus, that you can put into effect at any moment during a game.
  • Interact with each of your players, whose own personalities impact on each other. Your decisions must take this into account in order to maintain harmony within the group.
  • A huge range of statistics will allow you to make decisions regarding recruitment, contracts and player performances. Compare players' mental and physical capacities as well as their overall careers, to better understand their personalities and create meaningful team cohesion.
  • Should your players not bend to your will, you are free to mold their many attributes using the database editor, and then share your new database with the whole Pro Basketball Manager community.
