 Becoming a superstar on the courts wasn't enough for NBA 2K. All the forward thinking, all the innovation over at the Visual Concept Studios. They said this year you get a chance to have some side careers. So when you skedaddle over to progression, personal brand, there's endorsement after endorsement after endorsement, each which requires you to have a certain level of personality, all the questions that you answer in the QTE events, in the interviews, all the decisions that you have to make in your my career this year, you map out to your personality on this screen. I've been making flashy decisions. I've been shitting on teammates. And that's all in an attempt to jumpstart my side career as a fashion mogul. I know y'all have seen it in real life. Ha ha ha ha! The fashion sense, fellas! So they start things with this Andrew Torres side quest. It says you gotta start somewhere, meet with Andrew Torres. Senior by? Oh, it looks like he is. Oh, he's trying to raise her up. Yes, sir! Hey, good luck, man. I gotta make some money in here. I'll be back. So once you make it to the building, well, the door opens for you because technology is neat. How do you decide what to wear and what to buy? I look for quality first, ethically and sustainably. No, quality. And what about, like, accessories? Do you have any go-to accessories? Look, man, it's all about the bling-bling-bling, homie. Look, give me a chain, give me some ice. Oh, that's so cringey! I want you to have this whole machine coming in. Look, my teammates, they always talking about my jewelry game, right? I tell them that's why we need to win the title so we can all be rocking some rings, homie? Yeah, like me and the Toronto Raptors. Hey, I don't think he was messing with my answers, mainly due to the fact that he was being humble and self-deprecating, and I was being rambunctious and flashy who I talk to now. A fashion icon is born. Talk to Ricky about using the city runway. God damn it, that's a four-distance! For God I could do that. There's a runway stage set up in the middle of the city. It's perfect for an impromptu fashion walk, I'm just saying. You want me to do a fashion walk in the middle of the city? I know you got style, man, and I know you've been wanting to start a fashion line someday. Get people talking about it. I mean, you can't keep all this swag to yourself. Why is all the industry people slobbering on my cock? They're giving me the Gawk Gawk 50,000 Express. I'm dressed in my 2K launch day clothes to get my double XP, man. I haven't even thrown on my fits yet. I haven't even shown them what I could really do yet, and they're already Gawk Gawking me. I don't fuck with that at all, bro. That's not genuine energy. I guess it's time for me to show the unexpected citizens of the city exactly what I'm capable of when you give me a little bit too much free time. Oh! All right, me next, me next, me next, me next, me next. There's a gotten next spot for the runway. I wanna jump off the nearest building straight into a fucking sword. I'm a blow a kiss, and I'm gonna do the fucking TikTok. Man. Yes, sirski. Oh my God, I'm thinking about death. Thinking about death. Bro, why did I just become like 50% more flamboyant? What the hell just happened? Why are these grown adults just sitting waiting for random citizens in the city to walk? So now I go where I talk to Ricky? No, no, no, not you. No, no. What are you doing here? Yo, Jake, you stay fucking with me. Yo, what up, man? Let me be your model, Jake. Okay, let me be your model. Now, since you're the MVP of the city, I wanted to know if you could throw me an assist. Yo, honestly, I think that would be a fun pivot for you personally. You've really been making a name for yourself in fashion, and that might be a great area to up your game. Probably even get a more in-depth interview and tutorials. And it's just all off the top of your head, huh? Yeah, man, you know, I'm just... Bro, that guy is not my age. All right, bro, I'm gonna take the interview, bro. But just know that I know that you're not my age, bro. You're like 30, bro. Okay, so we got a whole bunch of different missions right there. His fashion stuff is not as easy. I thought it was gonna be. I'm a little envious of like Instagram models just whore out their beauty, and then like everybody else in life just has to develop skills, but they could just like look good and then like get lobbed opportunities. So that's where this is coming from, and I just wanna be like them one day. All right, we got three objectives. And if I wanna be anything like Virgil Abloh, I'm gonna have to get my game together. Change your outfit before NBA games, zero three. Head to the city runway and perform a fashion walk in a statement making fit. Meet Andrew Torres in the city for an interview about fashion. I could do all of that. Yes, sir! Bro, fashion is expensive, man. Lowkey they're gonna start paying me because I don't wanna shell out VC. I wanna shell out VC to get fits for different NBA games, bro. Please. Okay, I've made it to the fashion runway where all these unexpected citizens are gonna have to watch me strut my shit, bro. But before I do that, I gotta get my fit right, of course. So I've chosen to go with a state farm sales associate kind of look. Hopefully the crowd is fucking with it. I know Jake is fucking with this. There's no way I have to wait for these guys, right? Oh my God, I wanna hurt myself. That was fucking tough to watch. That was tough to watch. So after embarrassing myself live in front of all those unexpected city dwellers, I'm on my way to meet up with Andrew Torres where he's gonna ask me some hard-hitting questions about fashion, none of which I'm actually ready for. And we're meeting inside swags? Oh, no! You know, the thing I'm wondering about is now that you're dipping your toes in the fashion world, what is it about fashion that's so important to you? I mean, it's the ultimate first impression. Gee, look at this. Hold on. Look at all these clothes. They tell a story. You get to find out what people are, what they like. No, they don't! Colors, patterns, textures, all of that. It's just anything you choose to wear is telling me everything I need to know about you. That's the reality. My soul has left my body. I'm not happy about the direction my life is going in this game. But I have one more thing to complete. I gotta play three NBA games and I gotta get fits. I wonder how poorly they'll let me dress before they realize that I know nothing about fashion. You know, I realize my dream of becoming a fashion designer is not that far from reach. I just knocked out the previous challenge. That was easy. Now I sound like Sasha's about to bless me with another mission. All right, fellas. I'm on my way to meet Sasha. Someone told me if you run enough, if you run 2,600 meters, that they give you like different places you can spawn in a fast travel tour on the city. Hopefully it ain't just lie to me on Twitter. I was like, I'm gonna be furious. Okay, we're here. Where's Sasha? Sasha. You must be MP. I'm Sasha. How you doing, Sasha? Look, I'm about to just jump straight into it. I love the idea of working with you and your team. Truly. I'm not going to waste my time if you're going to treat my passion like something to be balled up in the bottom of a gym bag. I'm Sasha. You designed something for me with your time and your effort. I'm gonna give it the care it deserves. I'm telling you. Bro, why does she talk like a novelist? Equip sportswear that Sasha would approve of. Head to the city runway, show off your fits, play your next NBA game, then kill Andrew Torres. God damn, they gave me 15 missions to run through. Hey, bro, I don't know if I'm ready for this, man. Like, look at me. I'm rocking my classic AMP shirt with the Puma sweats. I got my Puma sweats on right now. I don't know if I have what it takes to get into high fashion. How do I know which sportswear that Sasha would approve of? How would I know that? I guess I just have to go to the shopping center and spend all of my hard earned VC trying to figure out what she approves of. Why is Sasha acting like I'm not an NBA player, by the way? Like, she wouldn't be working with me just off the strength of the fact that I can sell shit. Sasha, Sasha, does this scream Sasha to you guys? A muscle tank top that goes for 7.5 thousand. Okay, look, look, look, look. It says, all you have to do is equip sportswear. There's two keywords there, equip and sportswear. So first of all, let's equip shit. And maybe like if we equip enough things and then sportswear, state farm joggers maybe. What does she think about that? No? Okay, Sasha's not messing with that one, guys. Okay, let's put together a game plan. I'm gonna throw on a fit that there's no way Sasha wouldn't like. I'm gonna strap my shit all the way down to the run walk because I have to get to level five in fashion if I even want a chance at an endorsement deal, man. Jordan, God, damn, everything in here looks expensive. We're gonna start things off with this long sleeve compression shirt. And then we're gonna throw on these Jordan jump man joggers. We combine that with some J's. Ladies and gentlemen, I think we're ready. Okay, please, I spent like $15,000. This is the moment of truth. God damn it, I forgot I bought purple. God, this doesn't look good at all. I messed up, I kind of messed up. I don't know what I was thinking. I don't know how after spending all that time I ended up with this. Well, let's focus up and take another shot at this, huh? Okay, we're gonna keep the purple long sleeve compression shirt but instead of the slides we're going with the purple J's. Yeah, I'm running my bank account to the fucking just down here now. It's down here and Sasha approves. Ladies and gentlemen, I'm ready to head down to the runway. Hey man, you're killing it, hey, hey, hey, hey. Okay, so I did the runway now. We completed that mission. Show off your outfit in your next NBA game and then after that NBA game I have to talk to Andrew Torres in the post game scrum. Where my shirt at? How come I came in like this? How could I show it off this way? Okay, it's my turn, guys. I have to skip forward now because you guys aren't gonna enjoy this part because I don't really do it. So then I know that you guys probably don't but hey, subscribe to the channel and stuff because after this game just give me a post game interview and we, huh. What do you like about Sasha's designs? Her work is exciting because it feels like something familiar. I don't know. I don't know. She reached out to express interest in working with me so I already knew she was smart. Then you add to the fact that her designs are completely unexpected and exciting and are gonna take an idea of athletic wearing a whole new direction. I mean, what's not the light? Okay, completed that 5,000 MVP points. Yes, sir. Oh my God, this is moving so quickly. Guys, I'm upgrading my life right now. My lifestyle is about to go crazy. I'm about to spend all my VC on designer. Meet the designers, Apollo Leclerc. That sounds like you know everything about fashion, bro. Whoa, am I gonna cheat on Sasha? Ooh, drama. Okay, we've made it to the city view restaurant. Oh, he's whining and dining me. Ooh. Apollo, I can't tell you how excited I am to meet you, man. No, can wait. That's what he looks like. Stop it. I love to talk about your designs. Your fashion is amazing. Are you sure you wouldn't rather wear a pair of drawstring shorts and a shirt that looks so sweat? Huh? I'm still trying to figure out my style, man. I'm just inspired by what you do. That might be true, but I'm out. Looking to be someone's experimentation. I'd have to know that you were willing to talk about me as much as you did miss sweatbands and lycra. I understand where you're coming from. And look, if I gotta jump through a few hoops so you can be more comfortable with me, so be it. I can do that. I appreciate your understanding. Yo, he doesn't- I hope to hear from you soon. Okay, so now he gave me some objectives. He said dress up in your nicest suit that Apollo would approve of. Now I'm going for Apollo's approval. I can't just be my own person. I gotta be everybody else's. All right, first things first. Let's see if we can save some money since I'm desperate for everybody's approval in my career. Go to appearance, right? We're gonna just click on right here, boom. And then we're gonna throw on dress shirt, boom. And we're gonna throw on suit, boom, right? And then after that, we're gonna throw on dress pants. What the heck? I don't have dress pants. And then we're gonna throw on dress shoes. Oh, I'm down horrendous, guys. I didn't realize how down horrendous. I'm down horrendous. What does he think about this fifth? It's kind of fitting that Apollo's home in the city is right beside the runway because he just lives, breeds, and dies fashion. We got shoes and socks. Let's start with the shoes. Oh, let's go ahead, caught one of those. Let's take socks. Boom, let's caught one of those. And now let's take a look at some suits. And I look fresh. So look, look, look. This is the fit that Apollo approves. Head to toe, black suit. For some reason, the black socks that I bought that are the only socks that exist in the game right now, it says I don't have them. So y'all gonna have to deal with the fact that I have a black suit on with white socks, okay? All right, so we've made it to the destination. I'm on the got next spot for the runway now. So I'm ready. Bro, I gotta throw on these headphones. I'm so sick of hearing that song, bro. And I did it! 10,000 MVP points. I gained a new runway walk and a runway turn. All I gotta do now is show off this outfit in my next NBA game. And Andrew Torres is gonna ask me a question about it. Man, it feels like we just did this. So let's run it back. I was talking to a fashion designer the other day, Apollo Leclerc. And he's so inspired by me that he wants to collaborate and I came blaming him. Do you think the two of you might do something together? Oh, I stopped. They said, am I gonna do something with Apollo? It's certainly on Apollo. I'm gonna gas him up. I have the options in life. Man, I'm gonna sell myself. No, I just gotta make sure the fashion word is ready. Apollo's designs are gonna be completely game-changing. Probably make a lot of people realize how badly dressed they are, to be honest with you. So I just want to be smart before causing that much chaos. Man, I just gasped. I was slobbering on his cock for a moment there. Yeah, I look terrible. This suit is not tailored at all. Apollo, you have low standards, my brother. And where the fuck is my agent and my manager at? They're not helping at all. L agency, by the way. Your agency is literally the people that's supposed to help you pivot in career-related decisions. They not know where to be seen right now. I'm fucking furious. Me, budding, streetwear icon, Carlos. Talk about what it was. Okay, I have to do this again. I've seen what you've been doing for Apollo and Sasha. And to be honest, Carlos is gonna need a little of that love too. I'm seeing. Don't look so sad, MPF. I don't wanna watch. Ain't no way, bro. Hey, look, Carlos, there's no reason you shouldn't get the same respect as the other designers, man. I ain't got no problem here. I knew you'd understand. Okay, so I gotta suck his dick too now. I'm sucking a lot of dick today. Put on something that get the hype beast talking. Okay, so fit number one has not done the job. Let's attempt fit number two. There's no way. I'm trying everything, bro. I'm spending so much VC to try and look right for this guy. Which part of this is not street wear? Look, I got the J's on. I got the little jeans, the tapered jeans. And then I also got the compression shirt on. I don't get it. Like, what am I supposed to throw on that's gonna make this guy happy? Yo, bro, I need your help. Like, this street wear designer needs me to put on some street wear clothes that he messes with. And I can't seem to find out what it is and I'm running through my VC right now. That's all they have? I have to buy clothes then. So go buy clothes. Oh, bro, I bought so much clothes now. I think a drip of drown, bro. Oh my God. My clothes now. I'm not buying my store. He's hockey, though, bro. Look, boom. That's 9,000. Ronnie, Ronnie. Buy it for, come on. Okay, all right. 10. 10. Yeah. Throw those on. Okay. These ones? Yeah, we gon' change the shirt. Oh, American Eagles. No, no, no, no, no, no. They got changed. You know what? 31,000 is nothing. The hypebeasts love jewelry, right? Yes, sir. Oh my God, he's getting money. This is not enough to get the hypebeasts talking, man. Facts. Damn, I'm running low on puns. Man, this challenge has cost me like a hundred KVC. This is crazy. I've gone down the rabbit hole. This is what I look like now. A skateboard, a backpack, a Varsity jacket, some tight jeans, Jays, a backwards cap, some glasses, and more diamonds than I know what to do with. And I still don't fit Carlos' criteria, bro. Carlos, the fuck do you want from me, man? This is where they have all the goofy, that. I think I figured it out. They want me to buy something here, some real goofy. Yeah, this has to be it. I hope I'm right, because I am out of funds currently. They did run me dry. Yes, I got it right. Come here real quick. I want to show you how I got it. Now this is streetwear. Whole time he was getting it wrong, right? You got it wrong, bro. Oh man, not that I figured that out and spent a hundred KVC doing it. I'm actually kind of low on funds, bro. All of that leads up to this moment here. And now we wait until the post game interviews. I feel like that term streetwear means different things depending on who's saying it. You're a fashion guy. How would you define it? A hot eye to find streetwear. Let me think about it. It's not really something that could be well-defined. You know, it's not really something that could be well-defined because it's a bottom-up genre, not top-down, Andrew. The main ethos is coming from street culture and it's more defined by what people are wearing, not what someone's telling them to wear. You feel me? Damn, that guy was sucking my dick. Is he on my payroll? Okay, look, look, look. Look how much points I just got. Boom! Oh, and I gotta talk to Ricky. Look, I made some bad investments in me. What are you talking about? I messed up. I'm cleaned out, bro, and not just my money or my money. Like, all of it. Wait, wait, wait, wait. What happened? I'm sorry, I'm just messing with you, dawg. Look, everything's fine. We should short a little bit of cash flow to get the fashion line up. Damn, stop doing stuff like that, bro. It's fine. Now my bad news is really good news. It's not fine. You was bought to get fired and sued. I'm gonna send you this list and you can figure out the best way to tackle this, All right, bet. Meet Helen Charlton to see if she'll invest in your label. I have a label all of a sudden? When did I get one of those? Making my way downtown. Dom, dom, dom. Nama, nama, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma. How many people there is? It's like hundreds and probably over a thousand AI. I sort of got off to add proximity chat. This might be one of the greatest parks in the history of 2K, and I wish I was trolling, bro, because now there's so many people. I bet there's a lot of people now, but what are we gonna do with those people? Let's talk to them. Who was that? I'm impressed with what you and Mr. Bennett have put together. I didn't expect that level of business acumen from an athlete. I think you've got a bright future in the business world, but if you want me to go along with that journey with you, I've got to see that you can be a little less unpredictable. Bro, I'm gonna put a hit on her and she needs to die. Why the fuck would you meet with me if you knew that already? Did you wanna tell me that in person? Dude, did you wanna crush me in person? Oh my God, I forgot that if you go to the little runway, you could get your corporate points up. How many runway runs do I have to do so that I can get my funds up? So I guess now over the course of some interviews, as I finish these games, I have to answer corporate. I didn't wanna have to be that person. I wanted to get my free spirit rating up, but I guess I have to. They gave me a timed mission where they asked me to put on a unique outfit. I only have 10,000 VCs, so I literally cannot afford to be wrong. All right, so I got this quest in the subheading city MVP called the world is yours MVP of the city. And they say I have currently 200,000 MVP points, but if you get a million, then you get the penthouse, zipline, and only 10,000 VC, considering how much I had to spend so far. I don't know where the ziplines will go. That's pretty neat. And I'm definitely trying to get the penthouse. I never had a penthouse before on 2K. I never got it in like 16 or whatever game they had it in. But even if you look at my personality chart here, I'm so heavily in the fashion department. I'm at level six and there's 10 total levels. So I'm already 60% of the way through. I made significant progress even though it came at the cost of my pockets and my wallet, man. I'm gonna start a go fund me to help me or make the money back, make the money back.
