With the NBA season officially underway, the NBA 2K15 roster will be updated as frequently as possible to reflect what you see in the NBA on a nightly basis.

Many of you probably have not noticed, as this year the roster is downloaded for you automatically.
Here are a few of the many changes that you might of missed over the past few weeks (unless you were paying very close attention):

Shoe changes
Many players have had their shoe brand/model change since last season. The shoes that players wore in the preseason were reflected in roster updates over the past few weeks. Some examples of those changes include the following:
- LaMarcus Aldridge - Jordan
- Nerlens Noel - UnderArmour
- Jimmy Butler - Jordan
- Wesley Johnson - Nike
- Kyle Singler - Peak
- Mario Chalmers - Nike
- DeMarcus Cousins - Nike
- DeMar Derozan - Nike

- Shawne Williams - Jordan
- Kirk Hinrich - Adidas
- Will Bynum - Peak
- PJ Hairston - Under Armour
- Enes Kanter - Under Armour

- Damian Inglis - Nike
- Jorge Gutierrez - Nike
- Markel Brown - Nike
- Donald Sloan - Nike
- Damjan Rudez - Nike
- Zoran Dragic - Nike
- Grant Jerrett - Nike
- Bruno Cabaclo - Nike
Due to the fact that it was the preseason, there were very limited tendency and attribute changes. The changes made were those to players that changed up their play style. An example of that is Enes Kanter, who attempted many more 3pt’s than he has in his entire career. He saw an increase in his 3pt tendency.
All of these changes were made prior to injuries being implemented in the “Official 2K Sports Roster” and can be found in the “Injury-Free Roster”. If you are interested in playing Quick Game without injuries, a new option has been added where you can download the “Injury-Free Roster”. In order to access that roster go to Options - Create Roster - Select “Injury-Free Roster” and save that roster locally.
