Single Player, PvP, and Co-op

Players could jump into single-player modes or online matches ranging from 1v1 to larger team formats. Career mode added a more structured path built around challenging streetball opponents and progressing toward tougher courts.

VR Controls and CourtCam

The game emphasized motion-based dribbling, shooting, and dunking. A CourtCam option offered a different viewpoint for players who preferred a more relaxed presentation, while gameplay modifiers such as slow motion and exaggerated jumps added a more arcade-like option.
