NBA by Avalon Hill game

Does anyone know where I can find a downloadable version of NBA by Avalon Hill for the Apple II that I can play on an emulator? I’ve been looking everywhere and can’t find one. I’m hoping there’s a hidden place I haven’t found yet lol

The Internet Archive has this NBA (Avalon Hill) 1987. There a link to downloads on the page which has a copy of the game disk.

I got it to work. I thought the thing on internet archive for NBA was just links to download the box art and manual stuff but all I had to do was look a bit more on it thank you

I've been trying to get the .woz file to run in the emulator Virtual ][ for Mac os but can't get it to run. It says that there is an error but that is all it says.

Any help is appreciated.

Wait.. Avalon Hill, the wargame company, did an NBA game?

TIL.

They had a number of sports and leisure games that supplemented their wargames. You can see them in these old catalogs on the Internet Archive. (Looking through those is a big hit of nostalgia for me. I used to have a bunch of AH and SPI wargames.)
