NBA 2K20 Adds Upcoming Rookies Prior To 2020 NBA Draft

NBA 2K20 is getting players from the NBA 2020 draft class far earlier than normal. Players from the 2020 draft, like LaMelo Ball and Onyeka Okongwu, are coming to the MyTeam mode as part of the Next collection of card packs and boxes.

Normally, NBA rookies wouldn't be available until the next game in the series is released after the draft, which in this case would be NBA 2K21. The NBA 2020 draft is currently scheduled to take place on October 16 after being delayed from June due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
