Every college team in NBA 2K22 and what one you should pick

One of the more important decisions that you will make during your MyCareer journey is picking what college to attend. Of course, this decision comes after you’ve chosen whether to attend college or go straight to the G-League. 

However, if you chose to forego the G-League and head to school, then you’ll have some additional decisions to make. In NBA 2K22, the school you attend actually has some benefits, unlike previous years. Instead of all of the schools being the same, each one has a different boost that will affect your badges. 

Still, players might pick a school simply for their prowess in real life or their fandom for the actual NCAA teams. Below, players can see all of the schools in NBA 2K22. 

All NCAA college teams in NBA 2K22 

There are 10 schools available to players in NBA 2K22 and, no surprises here, they’re the same as they were in NBA 2K21. Players have the same choices as last year but the main difference this year is that each school has some added benefits to attending it. The boosts are specific to different badges, meaning players who want to model their player after a certain playstyle have their choices narrowed down for them.
