Expanded MyCAREER Story: Join the NBA G League, Play College Ball for Four Years and More. The current-gen version of NBA 2K21 welcomed players to The Long Shadow, this year’s narrative which tells the story of Junior and his journey of trying to make it to the NBA while carrying the burden of legacy. The next-gen version of NBA 2K21 gives players unprecedented new control on how they get to the league with more options than ever. Take your talents immediately to the league from high school like Kobe Bryant and LeBron James or get the full college ball experience like Draymond Green. New to the franchise is the exciting addition of the NBA G League, the NBA’s official minor league whose alums include freshly minted 2020-2021 NBA Champion Alex Caruso. 

The expanded MyCAREER story will also offer a new level of immersion, personality and activity only available in the next-gen version of NBA 2K21, including some appearances that longtime MyCAREER players may recognize! 

MyNBA: Revamped League Management Mode. MyLeague and MyGM players are among some of the most ardent NBA 2K fans out there, and this year brings a revamp to the league management mode with MyNBA.
