Another reminder that the NBA 2K17 servers will be shut down on December 31st, 2018. Its possible that servers will be up until 2021, but its also possible that they will be taken down sooner. So you’ll have to create a new player ID and start the game again. In the event of a server shut down, the files you created online prior to this will go away and the data won’t be available to run. I figure at this point a lot of people will have moved on to NBA 2K22 or NBA 2K21, but there's obviously content that we may want to preserve, individually or as a community. During the month of December, NBA 2K17’s servers will be shutting down for good.
