Sure!

Markkanen is now 30 yrs old and playing for the Bulls. Rated 81 overall. He played the first 9 and a half years for the Nuggets after being drafted by them at #10. In his best years he averaged a consistent 12 and 8 with 1.3ishblks in 30 mins.

His career average: 10.7pts, 7.0rebs, 0.5asts, 0.3stls, 1.1 blks and 1.1tos in 27.7 mins. 855 games. With percentages of: 42.6, 34.1, 91.5

He currently has 3 years left on his $30million deal which is pretty ridiculous

2028 PLAYOFFS

Finals rematch! Charlotte get their chance for revenge and got swept by my expansion team. The Memphis Sounds go back-to-back championships. They've only been around for like 6 seasons!

Reggie Blount is finals MVP this time. In the playoffs he averaged 18.2pts, 9.4rebs, 3.3asts, 0.1stls, 2.4blks, 56.1%fg, 86.1%ft, in 34.6 mins and 14 games.

Onto offseason! Lets see if there are any Hall Of Famers to tribute, and see which team gets #1 pick to draft Trae Gooding...

My babies Jaka, Xavier, and Raymar all killing it! Curious to see of any of my other guys are doing anything notable. I tried to not make the classes too strong.

Other notable retirements: Brandon Knight, Alec Burks, Evan Fournier, Jae Crowder, Tim Hardaway Jr, Elfrid Payton.

Can't be bothered doing the All-time placings stuff, other than to say that Damian Lillard is #2 on the total 3-pointers made all-time list behind Curry, and Klay is #5 behind Durant and ahead of Kyrie,Harden.

HALL OF FAME INDUCTEES
Boogie
Lillard
Paul George

And Golden State retired Klay's #11 jersey, and Indiana retired PG's #13 jersey. No mention of Lillard or boogie though which is weird. Same mysterious snubs last offseason too.

DRAFT LOTTERY

Who will get #1 pick and get Trae Gooding and have their franchise transformed? Milwaukee has best chance. Minnesota with 2nd best odds. Denver with 3rd best odds.

The Las Vegas Aces (expansion team) get #1 pick!!! I don't even know what their odds are, i didn't look beyond the top 3. But that is a huge surprise. Interesting stuff!

TRAE GOODING DRAFTED

Spoiler

INTERESTING FA SIGNINGS

--Bernard Benjamin (84ovr), drafted 7th overall in 2021 by Brooklyn, was signed by the Las Vegas Aces for $124mil over 4 yrs. The Aces have completely changed their outlook this offseason, now with quite a duo. Benjamin is a fundamentally low-post player who's averaging 12.2 pts, 7.8 rebs, 2.2 asts and 1.6 blks in 29.8 minutes in his 7 year career so far.

Everybody else re-signed.

Onto 2028/29 regular season...

Doesn't ring a bell. Which draft class was he in?

Re: I've simmed up to 2025 using draft classes from OS. Here's how the landscape look

Should be in class of '19 or '20.

You should do this again. Please do.

Re: I've simmed up to 2025 using draft classes from OS. Here's how the landscape look

Barnsey, I have a question about your league settings.

I enjoy god mode and sprinkling changes here and there. My biggest issue in my first attempt is the salary cap and the inability to sign players in free agency free about year 3 or 4.

What do you place the slary cap at? Is the Hard Cap on or off?

Any other details to assist with this?

Thanks!

[Aldrensr]

Re: I've simmed up to 2025 using draft classes from OS. Here's how the landscape look

I am in the midst of doing something similar to this. Restarted to get this years draft and free agency close to right and now simming through. In year 3 now.

Using similar to the draft classes u did, I also went in and edited guys to my liking and added in some guys in each class. I'm using:
2017 EmbraceThaPace
2018 EmbraceThaPace
2019 FDU1
2020 FDU2
2021 FDU3
2022 JazzMan1
2023 MarvellousOne
and will use JazzMan2 for 2024.

I immediately expanded MyLeague to 36 teams and just had those 6 teams sign washed up players for the first 3 years and tank and pretend like they are not there. I would have expanded gradually but I like controlling every move made by every team instead of trusting the computer to get in done well. Though that process can be stupidly time consuming and frustrating, so
I turn some financial and trade rules off and just do things my way. Just more enjoyable that way. Now heading into the offseason and into the FDU1 class, those expansion teams will be given the first 6 picks and will finally be looking to be active and competing franchises.

In mine, LeBron and Paul George just joined Lonzo on the Lakers and are destroying the league. Anthony Davis was just acquired by the Celtics for a huge haul of players and draft picks. Warriors have repeated in 2017 and 2018 and just played the last regular season game of 2019 against the Lakers with the number 1 seed on the line and fell to the Lakers. Potentially looking at a Celtics vs Lakers run here.

So glad 2K added the ability to expand and redesign the entire league. I can't even play Madden and The Show anymore because of this and I'm not even mad. My created player is in FDU1 and I'm about to draft him to my favorite expansion team and play more game and sim a little slower and enjoy it. Think I'm going to be playing 2K17 for a long time. Maybe try to sim/play into 2035 or so.

Can you guys post those gamertags, if this is for Xbox. I’d like to get those draft classes
