Are you prepared to welcome the warmer weather in style with NBA 2K23 Season 5 and Miami Heat’s Tyler Herro? You won’t have to wait long for it, as the next patch for the game is almost upon us.

The NBA 2K23 Season 5 update launches on February 24, 2023, at 8am PT / 11am ET / 4pm GMT / 5pm CET.

The 23-year-old playmaker Tyler Herro is the season’s featured hero, unleashing his flair – and that of Miami – all over 2K’s basketball game. You’ll be able to get a Tyler Herro Dark Matter card with an overall rating of 99 upon reaching level 40 in MyTEAM – a feat for which you’ll need a staggering 150,000 XP. At least you’ll have prominent assistance on that journey, as none other than LeBron James is the season’s Free Agent card.
