The basketball looks more like netball
I think there's ways to go with Vr and sports games. As cool as a pass play in vr is in the football game is, it's about a tenth of the actual game. Same with the basketball, easy to reference netball, as that's near enough all it is, stand/pass/shoot.
It's all about locomotion at the end of the day, we can look, throw our arms in real space.. but we can't move more than a few feet. That's why you see partial aspects of games. I'm not sure how overcome that issue with all the tech being what it is currently.
