NBA 2K20 loves showering you with things that have very little to do with the actual game of basketball being played on the court. NBA players though certainly have their own personality and 2K has put a lot of effort into emulating that part of the sport.

To buy new animations you’re going to need VC. No surprise there. If you’re lacking, or you just want more because, there’s no such thing as too much VC, start grinding. Or I guess you can open up that wallet and fork some of your money to 2K if that’s what you want to do.

Once you think you have enough of a bank to work with, press Triangle on PS4 or Y on Xbox One while you’re in The Neighborhood. After that go to MyPlayer and then go to the Animation Store.
