Play NBA Pro Basketball – Bulls vs Lakers Online

NBA Pro Basketball – Bulls vs Lakers came out for the Sega Genesis in 1991, a time when sports games were just starting to feel like more than simple arcade distractions. Electronic Arts published it, and it was one of the earlier attempts to bring a full five-on-five basketball experience home, with real teams and recognizable stars, even if they were made of big, chunky pixels.

You control all five players on your chosen team, switching on the fly to whoever is nearest the ball, with the main goal being to outscore the opponent. Signature mechanics include calling for picks to get an open shot and a turbo button that lets your player sprint for a short burst, though it drains a meter. The pacing is fast and a little frantic, with passes often getting intercepted and defenders reacting almost instantly. It feels like a chaotic, slightly unpredictable playground game where a single steal can lead to an easy fast break dunk.
