Since 2020 is a leap year, it makes perfect sense for NBA 2K20 MyTeam to honor that occurrence with a brand new group of packs and boxes. The NBA 2K20 Leap Year packs officially launched on Friday, February 28 featuring several Galaxy Opal cards for players as well as Diamonds, Pink Diamonds, and more. There’s also a Collector’s Reward to be had.
Who’s in the new NBA 2K20 Leap Year Packs?
The new NBA 2K20 Leap Year packs honor some of the best “leapers” from the NBA’s past and present. A promotional video launched in conjunction with the new packs on Friday showing off some of those stars. There’s no MJ, LeBron, or Vince Carter since they received cards in the All-Star Flash Packs recently.
In Leap Year packs, gamers will be able to acquire new Galaxy Opal cards for Tracy McGrady and Derrick Rose. In addition, Rudy Gay and Paul George have Pink Diamonds, while Lonzo Ball gets a Diamond card. There’s a Tom Chambers EVO card that starts at Amethyst and can be evolved up to Pink Diamond level.
Collecting all of the new NBA 2K20 Leap Year cards will bring a Collector’s Reward. It’s none other than a Dwight Howard Galaxy Opal card to add to the lineup at the center position. Howard previously headlined his own Spotlight Series II packs.
Other cards include an Alex Caruso Amethyst and a Hamidou Diallo Sapphire item for the previous Slam Dunk champion.
