Following on from the insight into presentation, the latest Courtside Report for NBA 2K26 previews the MyPLAYER Builder in this year’s game. It seems that one of the goals with the MyPLAYER Builder in NBA 2K26 was to make it easier to create viable builds.

To that point, some of the key additions include an Animation Glossary listing details on attribute and height requirements, as well as options such as Build via Badges that lock in the minimum attributes that are required for your desired Badges. Templates, a Scouting Report, and the ability to preview body types suggest a more informative approach.

There are also new archetype names that better emphasise a build’s strengths, a new maximum height of 7’4″, and the ability to unlock a Custom Takeover. Badge Perks, Rebirth, and Cap Breakers all return from NBA 2K25.

I’ve summarised the NBA 2K26 MyPLAYER Builder blog below, but with so much information to digest, I’d certainly still recommend giving it a read. As always, feel free to share any thoughts in the comments below, as well as join in the discussion here in the Forum!

As promised when the roadmap for the NBA 2K25 preview season was revealed, the latest Courtside Report is all about MyCAREER and MyPLAYER. Much of the blog discusses the MyPLAYER Builder system, Takeovers, Badges, and so forth, but there are also some interesting insights into this year’s story and other aspects of MyCAREER.

One of the key points about the NBA side of MyCAREER in NBA 2K25 is that it’s centred around the concept of building an all-time great dynasty. MP’s backstory is told in flashback, which means that the story portion of MyCAREER is optional and can also be played at any time. However, completing it unlocks rewards and a boost to progression, so it’s at least worth considering.

MyCOURT is also returning, and Season XP can be earned in NBA games, meaning that you don’t have to play online to earn rewards. Takeovers and Badges have been revamped, and more information will be made available in the MyPLAYER Builder.

It’s a lengthy read compared to the gameplay blog, but it’s definitely worth checking out if you’re a keen MyCAREER gamer. With that being said, I have summarised the key information from the MyCAREER Courtside Report, which you can check out below. Feel free to share your impressions in the comments, and join in the discussion here in the Forum.
