The strike is over, basketball season is back and you can look forward to an exhilarating NBA season on TV and on your home PC. Sega NBA Action from Expert Software lets you shoot and score with your favorite players from all 29 NBA teams. This exciting game delivers the speed and power of professional basketball with over 340 actual players and the signature moves that made them stars. Play the dynamite game of your life complete with commentary by all-time great, Chick Hearn.
