Ever wanted to pair Caitlin Clark and Stephen Curry on the same team?

While a possible 3-Point Contest between the two sharpshooters remains purely hypothetical, it will be possible to put Clark and Curry on one team in NBA 2K26, which releases for all major video game consoles on Sept. 5.

2K on Thursday announced a modification to its popular MyTEAM mode ahead of NBA 2K26's release date. Where MyTEAM previously only permitted players to draft former and current NBA superstars onto the same team, the latest installment of NBA 2K will see WNBA Player Cards introduced for the first time in MyTEAM.

This means that players can live out their dreams of raining down 3-pointers with Fever superstar Clark and Warriors legend Curry on one team. It means Dallas' rising stars, Paige Bueckers and Cooper Flagg, could share the court together in 2K26.

Napheesa Collier and Anthony Edwards together in Minnesota? Check. How about real-life couple A'ja Wilson and Bam Adebayo sharing the court together? Also doable.

 

This announcement offers further confirmation that the WNBA is more popular than ever. WNBA viewing and attendance numbers in 2025 remain strong, even as Clark has struggled with injuries in her second professional season. The melding of NBA and WNBA superstars in the same lineup on the virtual hardwood thus marks a new milestone in The W's cultural rise.
