Or the basic Microsoft Xbox controller for PC. I've been using it for the last 5 years.You can find it on Amazon or in Best Buy if you are in the US.

Hell, a corded 360 xbox controller is straight up plug and play... Pretty much 99% of games recognize it immediately and show the xbox button prompts... Xbox 1 controllers probably are the same, but haven't messed with them, I would imagine a cordless controller has several extra steps involved to set up, rather than just one step

Buy the Afterglow Xbox controller, it's wired and you can customize all the buttons and make the extra buttons into hotkeys for computer functions or w/e you want it to be.

If you want NO PROBLEMS with pc games in general, means you are not gonna buy something just for nba, buy an xbox 360 controller possibly WIRED.
Second really good pc compatible option it's the one already suggested: xbox 1 controller.
BOTH options needs to be microsoft, not other brands, one good example is the razer 360 pad, it's awesome, lot of customization and well built, sadly with some games you are gonna have problems.

The x360 controller is cheap and good, still the dpad (the cross on the left) it's HORRIBLE, I don't know who designed it but needs to be fired.
The xbox one controller it's not compatible with EVERYTHING right now but I'm sure it will be, and it's better in almost every way.

That said, consider how much you wanna invest and pick one, I can't suggest you to buy anything else unless you aren't in the mood to deal with 3rd parties software and things such as xpadder, xinput plus and so on to have best compatibility with all your games.

ABSOLUTELY avoid the steam controller, it's the worse controller ever, I bought it in pre-order and since it came out I found it useful for just a few games, the rest... totally crap.

thanks nix .. will buy probably the xbox 360 wired one its much cheaper and its plug and play right?

After using dualshock 4,XBOX 1 controller and many others like Logitech,Genius etc. I had to stick with Xbox controller for PC, its basically 360 controller with usb and it is the best controller to use with PC.

Im using an xbone stick these days. They got one with a wireless dapter for 70$ but a regular wired 360 stick does the trick too for about half the price.

Definetly XBox Controller for PC!! I play NBA 2K14/14/16 and soon 17 with it. Works 100%.
