My NBA System
Alexander Barboza a Sophmore at Duke University got into a hit-and-run accident just a few days before the 2024 NBA draft he entered. Now semi-conscious with a game screen in front of him, his future is unknown to himself but still within grasp. [Great choice! You've chosen Hardcore with there being no second chances!] [It's time for the character customisation, just "think" to adjust something to your liking.] 'This seems fun, I wonder if this is a new game.' Alexander thought looking through the empty profile. —— [Profile Rank ?] Height: ? Wingspan: ? Hand Width: ? Hand Length: ? Foot Size: ? Body Type: Ectomorph ?% Endomorph ?% Mesomorph ?% —— 'My build has to be a forward.' With his future about to start in a world full of familiar characters lets see how he will make it back to the NBA stage. Starting with the basketball competition in Japan. Taking advantage of knowing some anime characters, he will use these connections to sky rocket himself forward. Money and Fame awaits him! ----- [A/N: MC will be heading for the NBA with loads of different real-life situation going to occur that you can search up like international basketball games between countries. The MC is born at 1994 and will be entering the 2013 NBA draft. Go easy on me as this is my first time making a story besides those narratives at school. Leave a review to support my lazy ass to make chapters!
Info
This is my first time writing any sort of story so bear with me. I'm sure I can write coherent sentences though.
But any help is appreciated and loads of comments would be nice.

Also if you have any suggestions from NBA players for example:
/
[Tony Allen- Target Lock ★ ★ ★ ★(The use of high defensive IQ paired with extreme focus to constantly put pressure on your man when he has the ball. You will always be in the right position on defence. This does have the setback of taking up a lot of stamina depending on who you're guarding, leaving your offense at risk.]
/
[Derick Rose - Body Coordination ★ ★ ★ ★ ★(Have the same body control as MVP Derick Rose)]
/
[Magic Johnson - Eyes of God Icon Skill (To quickly near instant ability to scan the court and play as if you have eyes everywhere like a prime Magic Johnson. It's a combination of spatial awareness and remembering all his teammate's habits, so it gets better the longer you've played with your team)]

These "skills" are a technique. Not a physical ability like height, large hands or flexibility. So gaining the "defence" of a player includes their positioning and their ability to predict opponents.
Of course, this is a bit op even considering how exaggerated the anime is. So these abilities need to be leveled up as they take factors from the MC's status page to base the level off of.
[Lv.1 - Lv.5]
Also these "skills" are an aspect of a player. Just because you have the Hesi Pull-Up from KD, doesn't mean you have his physical aspects making the shot easier to block. Tony Parker's passing would be more desirable for anyone else. So some 3-star skills are better than 4-star etc for body type of MC.
Another example is that Derick Rose's coordination is so effective because of his explosiveness. His dunks look so graceful mid-air.
But without his coordination, he'd be more like a nerfed Russell Westbrook with way less finesse where it looks more forced, but it limits the scoring ability with mid-air leaps and adjustments.
You've gotta remember that D-Rose still wasn't refined and had a lot of times where his athleticism and coordination carried hard to score.
