NBA 2K23 allows you to create or edit a player from scratch to resemble any of your favorite real-life NBA superstars. You might not know that NBA 2K23 is already hiding replica builds of many NBA players.
These NBA players are the most famous players to exist, like Allen Iverson who crossed up Michael Jordan and scored on him. Similarly, Michael Jordan, the GOAT, could make free throws with his eyes closed.
When creating a player in the MyPlayer mode, if your stats and settings are close to those of a real-life NBA professional player, the game will confirm that “you have discovered a special replica” of that said player.
Several players are on that list, ranging from Magic Johnson himself to Kobe Bryant to Michal Jordan to much more. You can also change your jersey number to complete the build.
