Game Description
You're down by one. Ten seconds are left on the clock. You've got the ball. What do you do? You make the choice! Using the Quickstrike Ball-handling, you can intuitively control the ball in all kinds of ankle-breaking ways to dominate on the court. Own the paint with new moves and counters for your big men so you can go head-to-head in the lane. Pump fakes, drop-steps, and spins have never been sharper.
