Not Jordan, LeBron, Or Kobe: This Is NBA2Ks First Ever 100-Rated Card In MyTEAM

NBA 2K24 is getting the first card with an overall rating of 100 in the history of the franchise’s MyTEAM mode. One of the most legendary players in the history of basketball, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, is the recipient of this special honor.

Starting on February 16, players have one week to get this special card from NBA All-Star Packs & Boxes. 2K is honoring Abdul-Jabbar by giving the legend the strongest card ever included in MyTEAM. Previously, Dark Matter cards were the strongest with an overall rating of 99.

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar Honored In NBA 2K24 With Best Card Ever

Until recently, Abdul-Jabbar was the NBA's all-time leading scorer with 38,387 points. This record lasted from his last game on April 22, 1989, until February 7, 2023, when LeBron James overtook Abdul-Jabbars points total. Being the all-time best scorer for 24 years definitely merits a special honor.

2K is giving Abdul-Jabbar this honor by breaking its own rules and giving him this incredible card. In a statement, the company honors the legend of the game:

“Kareem’s influence and legacy spread far and wide. On the court, his long-held records for points scored, All-Star appearances, and more will always place him at the top of the best to ever do it.100 Overall Kareem Abdul-Jabbar will be able to do everything on the court. There is no card this version of Kareem can’t defend, and likely very few that can stop him on offense, just like in the real NBA.”

The NBA All-Star Weekend is happening from Friday, February 16, 2024 through Sunday, February 18, 2024. Next to the Abdul-Jabbar card, 2K’s basketball simulation will also introduce 26 new cards to honor the players participating in the All-Star match.

The highlights are undoubtably the 98-rated Galaxy Opal Starter cards for LeBron James and Giannis Antetokounmpo. During the All-Star Weekend, the game will also over special events like Double XP events and new cards being added during this period.
