Endorsements are a great way to earn VC and enhance your brand in NBA 2K23, so most players want to know how to get endorsements to help them maximize their VC (A currency similar to the MT 2K23.) earning potential. This guide will explore how to get endorsements, their requirements, and rewards in NBA 2K23 MyCareer.
What are Endorsement Deals?
Endorsement deals are incentive-based contracts you can get from brands. These brands offer you a big chunk of VC as a one-time payment for events and performance-based incentives you can get from playing games.
Once a brand offers you an endorsement deal, you can negotiate the initial amount of VC you can earn and the number of incentives you can get.
