Player locking within NBA 2K24’s MyNBA mode refers to the action of controlling only one specific player on a team for the duration of a game, or multiple games, rather than controlling the entire team. For example, the user can choose to play exclusively as a rookie point guard, while the AI controls the other four players on the team.
This feature provides a deeper, more focused gaming experience, allowing users to concentrate on the performance and development of a single player. This singular focus enhances the sense of immersion and provides a unique perspective on the game, enabling players to meticulously refine their skills and strategize from a specific role within the team dynamic.
