NBA 2K21: Where to Buy MyPLAYER Boosts

With the release of NBA 2K21, many players are beginning new careers with custom characters who’s stats may be initially lacking. Fortunately, MyPLAYER boosts can greatly help any character’s performance despite their stats. Stay tuned to this guide to learn where to purchase MyPLAYER Boosts in NBA 2K21 and more.

As mentioned earlier, NBA 2K21 allows players to simulate their own careers in the NBA with custom characters. However, new characters won’t always have the stats necessary to pull off cool in-game moves like jump shots and steals. The game offers a couple of remedies to the new character blues. One is the inclusion of the Gatorade Training Facility, where players receive bonuses to physical stats by completing workout mini-games. The second remedy is the MyPLAYER boost pack system where players can purchase temporary improvements to their character with VC. Buying these boosts has some key differences to the Gatorade Training Facility. For one thing, it’s much less time-consuming. Players can quickly purchase boosts and spend more time playing their career games instead of grinding for stats. The most important difference to note is that MyPLAYER boosts do not actually increase the value of a character’s stats, but just make the character more successful with in-game actions. These differences make the boost purchasing feature perfect for both veterans and new players. Veterans can use the boosts to quickly up their performance grade in games and new players can use the boosts to help overcome the learning curve of the game. Up next, where and how players can purchase them.

Where and How to Buy MyPLAYER Boosts in NBA 2K21

Purchasing boosts in NBA 2K21 is rather simple. From the main menu, select the MyCAREER tab and then navigate to The Neighborhood. Once loaded into The Neighborhood, players can find the boost kiosk by turning left towards the Pro-Am Team Arena. At this point, players should clearly see a red booth with a glowing neon sign that reads out “BUY BOOST”. Approach the kiosk and then proceed with purchasing whatever boosts. However, in order to purchase a boost, players will need to spend VC, the game’s virtual currency.

Players start off with 500 VC and can earn more from games and practices, but VC can also be purchased in the menu or earned from Jeff’s 2K Arcade. To purchase VC from the menu, simply open the pause menu and navigate to the options tab. From there, players should see the option to purchase VC and can select the bundle that suits them best. To find the arcade, simply proceed straight from The Neighborhood’s starting area and head towards the graffiti wall. Make a left and then a right and proceed until the Gatorade Training Facility is in view. Besides the Gatorade Training Facility is The Paint Tattoo shop and straight across from it is Jeff’s 2K Arcade. Inside the arcade, players can participate in a daily spin to earn VC, but winning is never guaranteed.

What Boosts are available in NBA 2K21

The following player abilities can be boosted:

  • Jump Shots
  • Layups and Dunks
  • Steals
  • Blocks
  • Rebounds
  • Ball Handling and Passing

Each ability boost is available for purchase either as a single boost or in a pack of ten. Single boosts are applied only for one game and cost 200 VC per purchase. Packs of 10 cost 1500 VC and will apply to the next 10 games played. Buying these boosts is all a matter of personal preference and the game can easily be played without them, however, most players will be choosing to use these boosts and since VC can be earned in-game, players can actually use boosts to perform better and earn more VC. Boosts are best bought by considering what each player’s character is worst at. For example, if a character’s shooting is weak then a Jump Shot Boost will be a good investment. If player’s are anticipating a single tough game, then boosts bought in singles are a good deal. If players anticipate that their character will need help for quite a few games, then the 10 packs are perfect for purchasing. By purchasing a 10 pack, players can save 500 VC than if they bought 10 boosts of the same kind individually. Overall, the MyPLAYER boosts provide players with an edge on their opponents and a leg up in their careers.

NBA 2K21 is available on PC, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and Nintendo Switch. It will also be available on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X when they release.
