About Final 5 Basketball, from BoardGameGeek:
Build your dream team, then take it to the court, where it all comes down to the FINAL 5 plays.
YOU make the big calls as team OWNER, MANAGER, and COACH! TRASH TALK, PLAY MIND GAMES, and STRATEGIZE your way to championship glory!
The game starts with a player draft, where you'll need to manage your cash while balancing and building your roster. Draft night can get ugly when opponents block your pick by outbidding you! Will you counter-bid, or let them overpay?
Then it's on to the regular season. Each round, you'll be dealt Front Office cards-but you can only keep five cards in your hand, so manage your front office wisely for future success. Play Agent cards to draw from the Player deck and upgrade your team. You'll also receive Playbook cards, which can be added to your roster to give you key game-time advantages. There are also risky money-making schemes and News Cycle cards that can change the game for everyone in the league.
Come game time, you've got five offensive plays to take the win. Your players' stats combine to become your team stats. Will you build a three-point bombing squad, a defensive powerhouse, or a balanced all-rounder?
Can you win the mind games?! Will you go for the obvious play, or keep your opponents guessing? You've got Playbook cards, Clutch players, and Crowd Heat tokens to change the game. This is way more than just chucking dice. 🏀🔥
