I will rate ZenGm's BasketballGM and Leaugesimulator.com's basketball simulator as effective alternatives for xkoranate
https://basketball-gm.com/
ZenGM- ZenGM is easily one of the most comprehensive stat trackers for basketball simulation. Built to be an accurate representation of an NBA front office, it offers the ability to alter many aspects of the league, including team financials, population, and league alignment. It also offers player customization galore. Custom rosters are available but require time to create. Overall, it does what it is required to do, and then some.
(FREE, but does require a sign-up to save leagues across multiple devices)
User Friendliness- 8/10
Customization- 9/10
Simulation Realism- 9/10
Modding Ability- 8/10( the 8/10 is due to the steep learning curve required to create rosters. Once learned it's an amazing tool)
Overall verdict: Better for NBA style leagues than world cup formatted tournaments
Leaugesimualtor.com- One of the more versatile simulation sites, leaguesimuator.com can simulate several different kinds of sports and does an ok job at all of them. The basketball version of the simulator can be used to set world cup or NBA-style tournaments. One drawback however is it lacks the depth of ZenGM, with only points per game being tracked and skill ratings for only offense and defense. While some will prefer the ability to roleplay the grey area the game provides. Rosters are easy to create as only 5 players consist of rosters for the scorination
User Friendliness- 10/10
Customization- 6/10
Simulation Realism- 7/10
Modding Ability- 9/10
Overall Verdict: Too versatile for its own good
