Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Nexuscore at none against Basketball Stars™'s 10. Nexuscore also leads on ads (none vs shown). Basketball Stars™'s advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 6 months) and chart position (#54 vs unranked). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
