Get ready to step up your game, because NBA 2K26 Season 3 is here, and it’s all about Cade Cunningham. Yes, the 2025 NBA All-Star is not just dominating the court—he’s now the face of this season’s update, inspiring everything from new cosmetics to exclusive in-game rewards. But here’s where it gets exciting: players will snag a Pink Diamond MyTeam Cunningham card as part of the Season 3 Pro Pass, giving your lineup a serious boost. And this is the part most people miss—the Park games are set in a reimagined version of NBA 2K16’s Sunset Beach, complete with a 25% REP Boost for your MyPlayer. Perfect for those looking to level up fast!
Now, let’s talk rewards. Kyle Kuzma kicks things off as the first MyTeam reward, starting at 89 OVR and evolving to a solid 91 OVR. But here’s where it gets controversial: is Kuzma really the best choice for an early reward, or should the developers have gone with a higher-rated player? Let us know in the comments!** Meanwhile, Jalen Duren’s Amethyst card at Level 10 celebrates his career-high stats, and Kyrie Irving’s Diamond card at Level 20 is a must-have for any serious MyTeam builder.
Coaching legend Rick Carlisle joins the mix at Level 28 as a Pink Diamond Coach, bringing decades of expertise to your virtual bench. And at Level 30, Alonzo Mourning’s 96 OVR Pink Diamond card is a powerhouse—though it’s outshined only by the season’s top rewards: Galaxy Opal Paige Bueckers and Anthony Edwards, both rated 98 OVR. Is this the strongest lineup of rewards we’ve seen yet, or are there still gaps?
For mobile gamers, there’s an extra treat: a Pink Diamond Jalen Brunson (96 OVR) is up for grabs via the NBA 2K26 MyTeam Mobile app. With player packs, currency, and resources scattered throughout the tiers, Season 3 is packed with value. But the real question is: will these updates keep players hooked, or is the grind too much? Share your thoughts below—we’re all ears!
