Okay, so, I wanted to spice things up in NBA 2K24. I got bored playing with the same old teams, you know? I figured, why not try creating an expansion team? Building a team from the ground up sounded like a fun challenge.
First things first, I fired up NBA 2K24 and jumped straight into MyLeague. That’s where all the team management magic happens. I saw the option to customize the league and, boom, that’s where the expansion team setup was hiding. You just gotta turn that option on, and you’re good to go.
Next, I started up a new MyNBA save. The screen showed all the current NBA teams, but I was looking for something different. I went looking for a setting that had to do with adding teams. Turns out, you gotta go to the rule change at the beginning of the season, and then you just accept that rule, which is about adding an expansion team.
So now I am in the driver’s seat of a brand-new franchise. It’s pretty cool because you get to do everything from scratch. Picking the city, designing the logo, and even the jerseys—it’s all up to you. It felt like being a real team owner, making all these big decisions.
Then comes the fun part—the expansion draft. Basically, each of the existing NBA teams can protect some of their players, but the rest are fair game. I got to handpick players who weren’t on those protected lists. It’s kind of like a mini-draft, and it’s crucial for setting up your team’s foundation.
I spent a good chunk of time looking at stats and trying to figure out who would be a good fit. I grabbed some young guys with potential, a few solid role players, and even a couple of veterans for leadership. It’s all about balancing the roster, right?
- Choose “Expansion Team” in MyNBA setup.
- Customize your team’s look and location.
- Go to the rule change setting and accept it.
- Pick players in the expansion draft.
- Build your team with a mix of young talent and experienced players.
Building an expansion team in NBA 2K24 is a blast. It’s way more engaging than just playing with existing teams. You get to put your own stamp on the league and see if you can build a contender from nothing. It’s tough, for sure, but that’s what makes it so rewarding. If you’re looking for a new challenge in NBA 2K24, definitely give this a try!
