WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT

Ratings
Almost certain I’ve never written a review for any app, but this game is truly exceptional. There were other iterations of this concept in the past, but the developers…
I wanted to mention something I notice consistently is random players “leaving” with no real reason as to why in the offseason.
Please fix the issue where you get to year 5 with the same school and the game breaks. I love this game it’s easily the best mobile basketball game.
