The NBA 2K24 New Year Event begins on December 27th, 2023. Overall, this event allows players to earn Diamond 94 OVR player items for Patrick Ewing and RJ Barrett. Together, this duo of Knicks makes up for an exciting pair to have on your MyTEAM.

There's nothing we can say about Ewing that hasn't already been said. The 11-time NBA All-Star gave Knicks fans hope every season. Although he never won an NBA Championship, Ewing helped his team reach the postseason 14 times. And although he never earned a ring, you could never blame something like that on one individual. As part of your MyTEAM collection, Ewing makes for a completely destructive force on defense, while also being a solid scorer.

Adding RJ Barrett to the mix seems like an interesting choice on 2K's part. The young shooting guard hasn't been bad, but still has yet to really shine for his team. Nevertheless, you can usually expect Barrett to play at a professional level and keep the team alive. Hopefully New York sees this kid blossom into something incredible.
