You can train your MyPLAYER at the Gatorade Training Facility.

When you start your MyCAREER in NBA 2K19, your MyPLAYER is starting at a rating comparable to Cherokee Parks. The goal, of course, is to transform your underwhelming player into a powerhouse, reaching the coveted level 99. To achieve this, you’ll need to dedicate time and effort to training. Whether you’re aiming to increase your MyPLAYER’s stats, unlock badges, or gain that extra edge, this NBA 2K19 MyPLAYER training guide has you covered.

Gatorade Training Facility: Boost Stats and Turbo

The Gatorade Training Facility, located near the Jordan Rec Center, is the key place to train your MyPLAYER and unlock potential. Here, you’ll engage in a variety of exercises designed to improve both your turbo and stat caps.

Exercises Available:

  • Leg Press
  • Clean Weight
  • Squats
  • Agility Ladders
  • Hurdles
  • Battle Ropes
  • Bench Press
  • Box Jumps
  • Sprints
  • Treadmill
  • Dumbbells
  • Medicine Ball
  • Gatorade Reaction

Completing these exercises yields two significant benefits:

  1. Turbo Boosts: Your turbo bar (R) will fill up to 100% after completing these exercises, giving your player the boost they need.
  2. Stat Cap Increases: Some exercises, such as Hurdles and Gatorade Reaction, are particularly effective for raising your MyPLAYER’s stat caps, which is essential for reaching level 99.

Gatorade Fuel Station

You can purchase Gatorade products using VC to get a slight Turbo boost.

Additionally, you can purchase Gatorade products using VC, granting a temporary turbo boost. If you’d rather skip the workouts, head to the Gatorade Fuel Bar, where you can buy consumables that offer a boost to your turbo.

Team Practice Facility: Unlock Badges

Badges in NBA 2K19 are crucial for gaining an edge over similarly-leveled players. These badges provide passive enhancements that improve your gameplay. While you can earn badges during games, the Team Practice Facility is the best place to focus on specific badges and run drills to level them up.

How the Team Practice Facility Works:

  • Choose a badge to focus on.
  • Complete drills designed to enhance that badge. You can do up to 4 drills per day.
  • Each drill is rated on a 3-star scale. The more stars you earn, the more badge points you’ll gain, so aim for the maximum of 3 stars (700 points).

The better you perform, the quicker you’ll unlock valuable badges that will make a significant difference in-game.

VC: Level Up Faster

Buying VC in NBA 2K19.
If you want to avoid training all together, your best approach is to buy VC. This will save you time in the long run.

If you’re looking to skip some of the grind, VC is the shortcut to boosting your MyPLAYER’s attributes. Just like in previous NBA 2K games, you can purchase VC with real-world money or earn it by playing.

How to Earn VC:

  1. Play Games: Whether in NBA games, MyCOURT, Pro-AM, or pick-up games in the Neighborhood, you’ll earn VC based on your performance.
  2. Complete Objectives: Participate in various in-game activities, like events and challenges, to earn additional VC.
  3. Purchase VC: If you’re looking for a quicker solution, you can always buy VC directly through 2K.

The more VC you collect, the faster you’ll be able to level up and improve your MyPLAYER’s stats.

Wrap-Up: Becoming the Ultimate MyPLAYER

Training your MyPLAYER to level 99 is a rewarding journey. Whether you’re spending time at the Gatorade Training Facility or grinding through drills at the Team Practice Facility, every effort you make will get you closer to becoming a legend.

If you’d rather speed up the process, VC can help you level up quickly, but don’t forget that investing time in gameplay and earning VC organically is a solid approach.

    Where is the neighborhood? I’m playing on PC and there’s nothing no practice facility not even a way to up my stats other than a base 700 points I earn for playing a game poorly or well. is it within the MyPlayer mode because there’s absolutely nothing I make my guy then I have to choose a team and that’s it no storyline nothing they only mention you in the Social media when you score the most points in the game is this really all MyPlayer for PC is?

    I know ima sound stupid, but can anyone help me on how to get to the training facility? I’m 12 and my dad got me a new XBox, but I’ve never played 2k19 until now. I’m in my career mode and don’t know how to train

      When you go to the “Neighborhood” you can walk around the town and see different places. There’s the Agent’s office, a bunch of courts to play other pick-up games on, stores to buy clothes, etc. The Gatorade facility is on your left when you first start. Just run around and you’ll find it.
