Female MyCareer leak?

What do you think, is it possible that 2K adds female character to the MyCareer mode, and to have WNBA inside it as well?

I wonder if they allow to play WNBA v NBA games at least in blacktop.

I think that's the next big thing that they do, probably for next gen only. Unfortunately, NBA Live was close but wasn't able to make it to this but I can see 2k filling out the game with this

Unfortunately, I don't see it happening but who knows, if they allow females in my career then they will have to allow men and women to play together in the neighborhood

To be honest Neighbourhood is arcade mode, not a sim, so there's no problem in giving both male and female characters same skillsets.

Honestly you could have two characters - one male, one female - tied together with skills and just switching appearance. It would even allow you to play NBA and WNBA MyCareer without switching anything but appearance.

Once again, NBA Live introduces an idea - female avatars - but NBA 2K ends up taking the concept further, just as they did when they implemented a WNBA season mode. As always, it's not about who does it first - though that does deserve some credit - but who does it best. Like franchise modes and online team play before, it sounds like 2K is about to do it better again.

I wouldn't be surprised if The Neighborhood games allow for mixed competition as some of NBA Live 19's modes did, and I think that's a good hook to have. I imagine men's and women's teams will otherwise be separated, so we probably won't be able to have a mixed MyLEAGUE for example (outside of modding possibilities on PC, of course). It never hurts to deepen your content, and the existing content will still be there for those who aren't interested in WNBA modes and female avatars. It's good to see them making full use of the license.
