Weird question I've tried to Google, what would be the best basketball video game to help a child understand the game/develop court sense? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

My 10-year old son plays, but has learning disabilities and is having trouble understanding why he's doing things. I was hoping to find a video game he could play that would help him learn practically in a non-teaching environment. Without coaches, parents, and other players triggering his anxiety.

Thanks if you can help.

Could you also watch games on tv together and point things out to him as the games progress? It would be beneficial if you could pause and rewind the games.

It's tough, because he has a hard time in "instruction" environments. That's why I'm hoping to sideload the info, rather than the direct approach.
