NBA 2K17 is a realistic basketball simulation with strong, intense gameplay that may be too competitive and frustrating for younger children. The game features online multiplayer, which means exposure to other players' behavior. While it contains no inappropriate language or content, the overall difficulty and competitive nature make it better suited for teenagers and adults.
