The 19-year stint of Tim Duncan with the San Antonio Spurs was chronicled completely by 2K Games beginning with the “NBA Live 98” as his first video game appearance until “NBA 2K16.”
Duncan is the second major superstar to retire from the NBA after the decision of Kobe Bryant to hang up his jersey following the NBA 2015-16 regular season.
The Spurs big man was the No. 1 draft pick in the NBA 1997 draft by the San Antonio Spurs and has never switched team during his 19-year stint in the league.
With the retirement of Duncan and Bryant, the remaining list of active NBA players who have appeared in every 2K game has been whittled down to include Kevin Garnett, Vince Carter, Paul Pierce, Dirk Nowitzki, and Nazr Mohammed, who was not active in the NBA this past season.
Incidentally, the developer has released new locker codes for “NBA 2K16” early this month, which means that the old ones are no longer going to work now.
The new set of locker codes is updated with cool functionalities and better options for players, which would also be a good prelude for “NBA 2K17.”
“NBA 2K16” will be undergoing more roster changes and fans are already looking forward to playing with their favorite team’s latest acquisitions with trades, free agency, and draft picks.
