NBA 2K item is still more expensive than real life and fans are furious

A live streamer has gained popularity by finding out that an insignificant item within the NBA 2K game is priced significantly higher compared to its actual world equivalent, amazingly so!

For those who’ve experienced NBA 2K, it’s common knowledge that there is an abundance of microtransactions available. You’ll find yourself needing Virtual Currency (VC) not only to enhance your player’s abilities, but also to outfit them with trendy new apparel.

In a sense, the city transforms into a runway for some, especially those enthusiasts who flaunt unique, exclusive fashion pieces that others might not own. Yet, there’s a wide variety of attire accessible to all, provided you have the necessary currency to purchase it.

One frequently sought-after item is the durag, requiring approximately 13,000 Venture Capital (VC) units, which equates to about $5 in real currency. For quite some time now, its price has sparked much discussion, and recently, another individual has gained popularity due to it.

In the game 2K25, a durag is pricier than an actual one. It seems like they’re exploiting us. They’re essentially following their own whims.
