NBA2K16: MyCAREER, MyCOURT Details

If you haven't watched the NBA 2K16 MyCAREER Trailer: The Whole Story, please do so now. OK, you good? Now let’s start this post with what you all want to know:

Thanks to Spike Lee’s influence in #BeTheStory, MyCAREER high school and collegiate games are playable. I’m led to believe that only a select few games at each level will be playable, though. Don’t expect full seasons until you’ve made it to the NBA.

Colleges confirmed so far are the University of Texas and Kansas University. Visual Concepts secured the rights to 10 total schools, so there are still eight more to be revealed, some of which have potentially been uncovered.

MyCOURT, your new central hub for MyCAREER, is a fully customizable gym that you decide how to design. This hub also doubles up as a court you can play on with your friends. You can play your friends in a private scrimmage, shootaround, or treat the court as a lobby before you hop in 2K Pro-Am. Here are a few items you can customize in MyCOURT:

Trophy/achievement case

Shoe display

Floors

Walls

Rims

Backboards

Nets

Signed NBA jerseys

Off-Day Simulator is a new feature to help showcase the complete life of an NBA player. Here you will manages your time to between endorsements, connections and Live Practice.

Endorsement deals will require your time to ensure you meet contractual obligations.

Connections are relationships with players, legends and others that you build up; there are a variety of rewards from pre-game animations to getting the option to pick alternate jerseys.

Live Practice allows you to interact with coaches and teammates by participating in drills to improve attributes. These drills range from 5-on-5 to solo. The solo drills come straight from the mind of gameplay developer Scott O’Gallagher, who played professionally for a number of years.
