About

We’re taking it back to the streets. NBA THE RUN is a fast-paced, online three-versus-three street basketball game, played above-the-rim and packed with posturizing moments, ankle-breaking tricks and a unique, signature style. Take your favorite NBA stars to iconic streetball courts around the world and stack wins, earn cred and become the GOAT of THE RUN.

Key Features

  • Don’t Get Knocked Out – Play Solos or Squads, the choice is yours. Face off against the best of the best in online multiplayer Knockout Tournaments spanning the globe on legendary streetball courts from Venice Beach, to The Tenement in the Philippines, and more. Lock in, win, advance, repeat.
  • Become the Goat – Gameplay is fast, fluid and responsive. Powered by true rollback netcode, your moves on the sticks will sync instantaneously—cross up an aggressive defender, switch to a layup mid-dunk to avoid a block, or throw up a lob out of a spin move for a game winning alley-oop.
  • Defense Wins Chips – It’s not only about the high flying dunks, stepback logo threes and ankle breakers—in NBA THE RUN, defense is just as fun, and powerful, as offense. Thunderous blocks, diving for loose balls, huge steals, and all-out physicality on D can lead to a W and will get you just as hyped.
  • Streetball With Style – Everything about NBA THE RUN is handcrafted and stylized to deliver a completely unique look and feel. Authentic to the sport of basketball and visually in a lane of its own—there isn’t another basketball game on the market that looks, feels or plays like NBA THE RUN.
