PatTheHead continues do some amazing work for NBA 2K13, as his roster pack now includes an end of 2025 season update. This is fantastic news for everyone who’d like to bring the modern NBA into a classic release!

In addition to updated rosters, the latest release includes new dornas, new cyberfaces for hundreds of players courtesy of several contributors, and Pep’s 2025 All-Star jerseys. Enhancements have also been made to other rosters in the pack, including teams for the exhibition games in the 2004 and 2008 Olympic mods. A handful of jersey numbers have also been fixed.

For those who are unfamiliar with the previous releases, on top of a 2025 season update and Olympic rosters, PatTheHead’s NBA 2K13 roster pack includes a host of retro season mods spanning decades of basketball history. This includes retro NBA rosters, ABA rosters, NBL rosters, BAA rosters, and even ABL rosters! It’s definitely a love letter to hoops, in a game that still holds up superbly today.

Check out Pat’s release topic for the download links, as well as previews of what’s already available and what’s coming in future updates! You’ll also find some fun basketball history and trivia. Shout out as always to Pat and everyone else who’s keeping NBA 2K13 and other classics alive with retro rosters, current roster updates, and other excellent mods! Your efforts and willingness to share these fantastic projects with the community free of charge is most appreciated.

From courtside of the virtual hardwood, it’s Episode #578 of the NLSC Podcast!

It’s been a couple of years, so this week community member Ken (aka Stildo33) makes an overdue return to the show! We chat to Ken about his new business venture bringing competitive gaming to kids, and his experiences schooling the youth on the virtual hardwood. We also get his thoughts on NBA 2K25, including MyNBA Eras and the Eras rosters. Ken also provides an update on his retro season mods for NBA 2K19, and we discuss modding techniques and the importance of attention to detail. He also shares more memories of playing Ultimate Basketball for NES and a couple of other old school favourites, how he stays connected to basketball, and his takes on Payton Pritchard and this year’s Boston Celtics.

From courtside of the virtual hardwood, it’s Episode #530 of the NLSC Podcast!

If a basketball video game featuring modern technology but a past setting – from rosters to modes to presentation – was ever to be released, which year would you want it to be? This week, we join the community in sharing our choices of legendary seasons to re-live on the virtual hardwood. We also react to the announcement of NBA Superstars, an upcoming arcade basketball game in the style of NBA Jam. What do we make of the gameplay in the trailer, and can it fill a void in the basketball gaming space? We also discuss having interactions with former NBA players on social media – both positive and negative – and provide a PSA for our fellow basketball gamers who may be having a rough time right now.
