United States of America have dominated men’s basketball since professional players were first allowed to participate at the Barcelona 1992 Olympic Games when the celebrated “Dream Team” featured greats such as Earvin “Magic” Johnson, Larry Bird and Michael Jordan. Perhaps while progressing through the MyCareer mode in “NBA 2K17”, players may also be given the opportunity to suit up for Team USA inside the game as they compete together with other NBA All-Stars.

With the 2016 Olympics right around the corner, it was the flawless time for 2K Sports to reveal the Olympic rosters in National Basketball Association 2K17, a feature that was widely assumed since the cover art was unveiled. But as 2K Sports confirmed the addition of the 2016 Team USA, gamers can find out who is better between the 1992 and 2016 team in National Basketball Association 2K17.
Not to mention Duke University and USA Men’s basketball coach Mike Krzyzewski, who will be making his NBA 2K debut. “We love the story we write, the narrative we can build around the USAB team”. Additionally, coach Mike Krzyzewski will be on the sidelines, advising the U.S. team during its games.
And while the gameplay and graphics continue to amaze players, developer 2K Games may still be coming out with more things to capture everyone’s attention.
However, I think we all know the real reason the 69-year-old coach is so amped about this feature, and that is recruiting. This is the first time Coach K will be in the 2K series and he’ll even host a tutorial mode that teaches you the basics. And, more importantly, the new game will include the ability to play as the legendary 1992 Dream Team. You’ll be able to pit the classic Dream Team roster against the 2016 USA Basketball Men’s National Team, with players like cover star Paul George, Kevin Durant, Draymond Green, Jimmy Butler, and Kyrie Irving.
As NBA 2K17 release date is just around the corner, the gaming community can now place their pre-order. The Kobe Bryant Legend Edition will cost $79.99, and the Kobe Bryant Legend Edition Gold checks in at $99.99.
