The Most Hilarious Glitches In NBA 2K History, Ranked

The NBA 2K franchise has been the choice for basketball gamers for the better part of the last decade. The love and care the NBA 2K developers put in to making that game look and feel as close to real NBA basketball as humanly possible has earned them a ton of respect in basketball circles. But despite how good 2K sports makes NBA 2K every year, developing on the cutting edge of video game simulation has its inevitable drawbacks. Fortunately for the internet, when something does go wrong in NBA 2K, we’re all winners.

I am, of course, talking about of all those amazing glitches we see pop up year after year around NBA 2K’s release date. They’ve become nearly as big a part of NBA 2K‘s popularity as the quality of the game, so think of this as more of an appreciation for 2K ‘going for it’ and less of a knock on their engineers. What they do is incredible, but sometimes things break, and the results couldn’t be more hilarious.

Without further rambling, here are the ten best NBA 2K glitches of all-time.


Pretty good selection, but the Curry layup glitch in NBA 2K16 is probably still one of my favourites.

That Steph Curry glitch really exaggerates his signature tear drop layup. :lol:

Haven't come across it in NBA 2K17 yet, which is obviously for the best, but I kind of miss triggering the glitch while shooting around. Then again, I've gone with LeBron's layup package this year anyway, as it seems to be more effective.

The 3rd glitch isn't a glitch btw. This is coded animation just like the animation when defender is just standing between the freethrow shooter and his teammate and doesn't allow them to give high five.
