The Sacramento Kings Dynasy - NBA 2k21

The Sacramento Kings Dynasty


System: PS4 - NBA 2k21
Regular Season: 82 Games
Quarter Length: 10 Minutes
Simulated Quarter Length: 12 Minutes
Normalize Played to Sim Stats/Minutes: No / Yes
Roster: MY WAY (Official Roster With Rookies + Free Agency)
Playoffs: All Best of 7
Gameplay Difficulty / Sliders: All-Star / Schnaidt1' gameplay
Draft Classes: 2020 in roster & 2021 - Real Draft Class
MyLeague Sliders: Schnaidt1' MyLeague with some tweaks


My rule is that I play one game and the next 4 games will be simulated (simcast).

P.S. It took me a few weeks to find out which team will choose a rookie in the draft order and to which team the free agent could go - this is an alternative version of the new season 2020-2021 (Content name: My Way).

Hope I didn't overdo it!

I'm Officially Finished Playing Basketball


Vince Carter announces his retirement from nba after 22 seasons. It was largely a formality because the 43-year-old Carter had said many times over the course of last season that this would be his last in the NBA. His 22 seasons are the most in league history, and he became the first NBA player to appear in four different decades.


List of players who went to retirement after season 2019-2020:

• Vince Carter, ATL, 22 years pro, 43 age - Hall Of Fame (1,487 GP)
• Pau Gasol, NONE, 17 years pro, 39 age
• Udonis Haslem, MIA, 16 years pro, 40 age
• Nene, NONE, 16 years pro, 37 age
• Jose Calderon, NONE, 13 years pro, 38 age
