Rosters are gonna be insane this year.

These guys are awesome (as is 2Ks openness in letting us share rosters) they give the game more replayability after the draft and most of their detail is next level. Never forget 2K Stauff started out like these guys.

They're gonna do great things with the new CAP.

Cool piece. Seeing Nogster's name thrown around was a blast from the past.

Those who create the actual rosters deserve all the love they get, but I also tip my cap to those who've mastered certain supporting elements over the years. Tgor's 2K create-a-player faces are the best I've ever seen and I'm looking forward to what he has in store for his return this year. And a personal favorite of mine from years ago was OS user portlandblazer, who used to create near perfect renditions of classic players during the XBox 360 years and was painstakingly accurate when it came to giving players accurate accessories and shoes.

Here's hoping 2K19 continues to deliver on the roster customization front. I always keep my fingers crossed upon release that something strange hasn't happened (i.e. the create-a-player setback in 2K18) that hamstrings these guys from providing their best work.

Thanks for the shout out my friend. I will be making draft classes this year. PS4. I hope I can continue the great work we all did on the 2018 classes.

Please, can we create a 2K19 OS COMMUNITY roster, so that everyone can make sliders and draft classes to match that same base roster. Would make things so much easier for everyone as it'd take less time and would eliminate the "is X draft class good with Y roster" questions. My only wish for the community with 2K19.

And yes, I'd GLADLY help out.

For you Xbox users dont sleep on Vannwolfhawks custom roster. His roster played more NBA realistic than any roster I've ever played with, pretty close with SimWorlds roster. His roster pretty much saved NBA2K18 for me.

Reading this makes me think 2K and really all sports games need to make a way to import content created for previous version of the game. (Really all AAA sports games). So much rework done every year. Imagine where things would be if people didn’t have to make the same players every year, etc.

One thing I'd like to see is to be able to have a search box, so that I could just type in a player's name and have the system pull all the versions of that player.  That way if I want the 86 version of Jordan on my team I don't have to scroll through 60 plus teams to trade him with someone on my current team.  Or dropping him into free agency is still bad because there is still a lot of scrolling back and forth between teams.  Its a nit-pick thing I know.  And I LOVE that there are so many teams.  But it does make changing players more cumbersome.  Adding a "search" feature would go over like crazy with the community.
