You CAN assign elbow bands (PS4)

[youvalss]

Found a workaround to be able to assign the elbow bands - did it for 1993 Jordan.

Watch the video below, but instead of using a player for the headband, use a player who wears an elbow band - such as 2001 Kobe.

This is awesome! Thanks man!

I was also able to assign an elbow band to Kenyon Martin while keeping his head band - by using Quentin Richardson.

Just make sure you save a DNA copy of the player you want to edit, otherwise you may lose him. Not sure how to get him back.

Now my mission is to be able to assign the high band (bicep band) which 2001 Kobe is actually supposed to wear. Do you know if there is any classic player who wears this band by default?

Didn't realize that, and couldn't find anything about it here. I wish 2K didn't make us go through all this just to achieve something as simple as that.

Yeah pretty dumb it’s not an option like it had been for the past decade. Now if only we could edit the shorts length

Re: You CAN assign elbow bands (PS4)

Is this only a problem with old gen? Next gen you can assign anything.

I bought 2K21 old gen on discount just to have it and noticed I couldn’t edit MJ’s shorts length.

I know he’s worn both, but do you guys think the smaller band on the upper forearm (that he comes with) or the larger elbow band is more accurate to life MJ?

Re: You CAN assign elbow bands (PS4)

The elbow band is definitely more accurate. But the length of the shorts kills it for me. Are you able to edit his short length on next gen?

Yes you can thankfully.

Bruce Bowen of the 96-97 Heat wears a high Bicep band. Just make sure you turn it to always on, save it, then go back to him transfer KB dna in.

No disrespect, but it's not new. there were threads about this since 2k20

Thank you. I also found that all-time Lakers Kobe wears the bicep band. If I could find someone who wears the bicep band on left arm as well as a headband, I could use it on Ben Wallace.

I didn't get 2K20 or 2K19, I don't actually buy these games every year anymore, just at some point when it's cheap every few years. Was it the same issue in 2K20 as well? Silly if they didn't fix it for the second time.

Re: You CAN assign elbow bands (PS4)

Wow you guys are right. Looked closer at pics and the elbow band is more accurate to MJ. Ideally placed a tiny bit lower and a tiny bit smaller, but it’s about spot on.

If I remember correctly, the change happened during the 1991 playoffs. I think it was first a red band that was moved to the elbow, then it was changed to black. Later when MJ came back in 1995 occasionally and for part of the 1995-96 season he wore a black band on the forearm again for some reason.
