Looking for Basketball Mgmt game for daughter

My daughter has become obsessed with the NBA / understanding the salary cap, etc. Does anyone know of the OOTP type game for basketball?

Sorry if in the wrong forum.

I tried the demo of Draft Day Sports: Pro Basketball 2020 from Wolverine Studios and was very impressed with the updates this version received. I highly recommend at least trying out the demo before you buy.

I feel like Draft Day Sports is a bit random on game results, personally, but I also spent more time playing their college version than pro version for what it's worth (for an example of what I mean, wasn't rare to have 1 & 2 seed fall in the first round of the NCAA Tourney when I was playing)

From what I recall, the pro version is pretty good about salary cap & rules & roster management though, so yeh, demo it and see if it works for what you 2 are looking for

Fast Break Basketball by Grey Dog is still my favorite, and I think it's the quickest and most intuitive, especially if she's never played a text sim. I've just never enjoyed DDS like I have OOTP or the Fast Break games. I've played the Fast Break college game more than OOTP, which is saying something.

What would make DDS more enjoyable?

I like this game as well but I have been getting a lot of errors with it the last few times I have ran it.
It also has not been updated in a while and the game engine just cannot handle the amount of three pointers in the modern game.

I really have been enjoying this college basketball game for phone, https://www.reddit.com/r/gmgames/com..._ipad_college/ , it's free of course.
