NBA The Run
Developer and publisher: Play by Play Studios
Platforms: Steam, PS5, Xbox Series X/S
Price: $30
Basketball fever has taken hold for many as the New York Knicks are just one game away from their first NBA title since 1973. If you're a Knicks (or San Antonio Spurs) fan looking for a way to kill some time until tonight's Game 5, NBA The Run might have you covered.
This is a 3v3 streetball game and a spiritual successor to NBA The Street from a team including some developers who worked on that series. It features more than 30 real NBA players — including LeBron James, Stephen Curry, Luka Dončić and Kevin Durant — and it leans more into arcade action rather than taking the simulated approach of the NBA 2K series. I'm not quite as into basketball as I was as a kid, but NBA Jam has a permanent place in my heart, so I'm definitely interested in trying NBA The Run.
