Badges are an essential part of NBA 2K23’s ecosystem. They’re used to power up players in MyCAREER and MyPLAYER game modes, making them game changers on the court.
Players will always be able to increase their attributes by training, but it’ll be hard to resist the instant improvement that badges provide. Using a badge will allow your player to excel in certain areas immediately, giving you a much-needed power-up for your next endeavor.
The Gym Rat badge improves Speed, Acceleration, Strength, Vertical, and Stamina by four points. It’s one of the most sought-after badges in the game since it directly strengthens a player’s core. Though the Gym Rat badge can be unlocked within a few hours, the process of unlocking the Gym Rat badge will depend on the generation of your console.
