The basketball world is in full motion.

NBA Tip-Off is here, a new WNBA champion is about to be crowned, and Season 2 of NBA 2K27 is about to drop!

Season 2 is headlined by Tyrese Haliburton and Caitlin Clark, two of the biggest names in Indiana basketball. Every game, every possession, every moment is an opportunity to overcome the opposition and prove they have what it takes to lead their teams to glory.

The offseason is over; the road to the NBA Finals starts now.

Caitlin Clark just wrapped up her third season in the W, earning her third All-Star nod and leading Indiana to the playoffs for the second time in her young basketball career. Meanwhile, Tyrese Haliburton looks towards Tip-Off, when he’ll aim to reclaim a spot atop the NBA world by bringing a championship to the Pacers.

Perfect your build, make a name for yourself in MyCAREER, ball out in The City, and stack Ws on your way to Level 40, earning all-new rewards for your MyPLAYER and your MyTEAM, so you can make an impression as soon as you get on the floor.
