Competition is fierce, money is tight, and your critical task as team manager is to build a dream lineup of basketball superstars. Basketboss is an auction game where each season you’ll be responsible for managing all the complexities of a professional basketball team. Your principal task is to offer the best contracts to players at auction. You’ll also have to make sure you can hire the right team advisors - as they provide special powers that can dramatically improve your lineup if used properly. For example, the Physical Therapist can help you avoid crippling injuries! Will your lineup be stacked with Hall of Famers and your shelves full of gleaming trophies? —description from the publisher
