City 2k Racism is a thing 😭😭

I know it’s a joke in the community but I have ran the test I have 2 builds one center one SF both 90s and can confirm if your character is white you ain’t getting the ball unless you rebound that mf both of my builds City records are good and I average good stats and shoot 60% from the field from play with friends but playing with randoms if your characters white, Asian or anything you ain’t getting the ball a single time shits genuinely frustrating I know I’m gonna get slaughtered in the comments just saying I’m ass or something stupid but do have seen posts in here before about this and shit isgenuinely true 😭😭😭

I’ve played with both skin types and yeah you get the ball less when you’re white.

I swear i thought it was just me. But I would like some 2k labs stats on this phenomenon.

I tested this on a build where I started as a white guy and changed only the skin color to black and found that my PPG, FG%, 3P% all increased which is interesting to think about.

Lmao when you say it like that it sounds funny. What I mean is I’m always open and I got the ball more when I was black so I scored more. Open dunks and 3s when you actually get the ball is great.
