You have to push around one of those portable basketball hoops on wheels you see in driveways but in exchange you can incite an impromptu bball game anywhere

If it's the NBA2k series, they probably have the predatory casino in the My Team mode like FIFA.

Just wait till you unlock the skyhook, then you can go back through earlier courts and reach all those hoops with the yellow icons.

That looks like the opposite of a bad marketing move, tbh. Lady knows exactly what she's doing and she's leaning into it.

I wish her luck. Actually maybe I'll have a look at that cookbook. I love Thai food.

Even though the quality of the models/ animations/ textures look like they'd be at home in a first wave gamecube game, I'm pretty sure that's from the nba game that just came out like a week ago that goes for $100+microtransactions
