You will be in charge of your own team. NBA Live 18 Franchise mode puts players in the shoes of a manager and a coach. Unlike in The One mode, where users focus on one player, this time an entire team of basketball players will be under players’ supervision. There are two options when creating a team. Players can choose a pre-built one or choose the fantasy draft creation option and build any team they like. There will be 30 seasons to complete. Players will find themselves making changes in team composition and also be in charge of players’ training. The goal is to win NBA championships.

Follow the To Do schedule. This section is a schedule that offers managers a sense of direction. They will be able to play full matches but also simulations and moments.
