Zumobi Pro Basketball

Microsoft-owned Zumobi is out with yet another iPhone application, this time geared toward NBA fans. The app called Pro Basketball provides real-time updates on all 30 NBA teams — including scores, stats, schedules, standings, player details, in-game updates, and post-game recaps. In addition, the application also offers detailed stats like offensive and defensive leaders for points, assists, rebounds, blocks, steals, and more.

NBA fantasy enthusiasts can monitor their players and rosters with Pro Basketball’s custom “Favorites” team-builder feature that creates a virtual team with stats galore.

Finally, to make Pro Basketball even more appealing to fans, Zumobi made sure you can easily follow your favorite team news, only. In that sense, you can put your favorite team’s logo on the homescreen to quickly view scores at a glance. To be fair, I’m not sure how this exactly works, but since we’re talking about the free application, there’s no reason why not to try it out — that’s in case you do appreciate NBA. Here’s an AppStore link with more details and screenshots.
