For true basketball fans, U-Play Online will be launching their classic management game International Basketball Manager on Steam later this summer. The game will feature updated fictional squads corresponding to season 2017-2018.

International Basketball Manager brings us back to the court to put ourselves in the shoes of a basketball club manager. Sign the best players for your team, train them effortfully and win as many trophies as you can. The game contains 12 national leagues, 2 European competitions, and 7 national squad competitions.
