NBA 2K22 On-the-court Gameplay
The first NBA 2K22 trailer will be released later in August, and more gameplay changes will be revealed there. Right now, the NBA 2K team wants to share some specific changes to the gameplay on the field.
Offensive - There will be new signature moves and combos to break defenders' ankles. Precise jumps, plunges into traffic, and missteps in alleys will all become skill dependent. Basketball IQ will play a huge role in the top competitive positions in NBA 2K22.
Defense - The newly revamped interception and blocking system is just one part of the new arsenal of defensive tools that players will now have access to. Throttle the ball player with your strong defense around your perimeter. Playing in paint has never been more useful, giving elite defenders more control over the outcome of the game.

This applies for free to all players, whether you're a MyTEAM user, MyCAREER, or the all-new next-generation W player. There will be more content, rewards and ways to play than ever before.
