Get ready to take the reins of your own basketball team in an intense and in-depth management game!

With its proven experience in basketball management games, Umix again partners with Cyanide, creator of the successful Pro Cycling Manager series. Evolving their project together, they have created the Pro Basketball Manager franchise, a series of management games dedicated to basketball, with realism at the heart of gameplay!

In Pro Basketball Manager 2016, the player will have access to over 45 leagues from around the world with the modus operandi of each, such as the North American College system, being faithfully reproduced. The coach will be able to choose from a database of over 1000 teams, but he will also have charge of a national team in addition to his club, and thus take part in continental and international competitions.

Pro Basketball Manager 2016 will allow players to manage numerous facets of their club, such as recruitment, finances as well as team training. The manager can also get directly involved in matches, played in 2D or 3D mode, in order to refine his strategy!


From the US collegiate championships to the renowned North American league, through the European, Asian and women's professional leagues, numerous competitions are playable in Pro Basketball Manager 2016. As in real life, each league has its own rules and these have been faithfully reproduced in Pro Basketball Manager 2016. Depending on the competitions in which you take part, your bosses will fix your seasonal goals, which you can set even higher still!

The recruitment process applicable to your team will differ entirely depending on the league in which you play. If you run a non-professional team, in which the players are not paid, you must convince players to join your side by showing real interest in them. Whereas in the North American league, you will have to handle all the complexity of contracts, exceptions to avoid paying the luxury tax, not to mention trades or the draft. Finally, in the other leagues you will have to manage the buying of players, loans or free agents, taking care not to exceed the payroll allocated to your team for the season.

In addition to the competitions available for your club, you can also compete in international competitions such as the World Cup or the European Championship!
