One of the biggest parts of basketball culture is the NBA 2K series from 2K Sports. You can create your own player and take him through a career, take the reins of the general manager position of any team and build a dynasty, play against historical team, play against international teams, and a lot more. NBA players play the game as much as fans do and their player ratings matter to them.
