NBA 2K20 How to Change Badges After Assigning Them
Maybe you assigned the wrong badge to your MyPlayer. Maybe you thought he would need Catch and Shoot, but in hindsight, Deadeye would have been a better choice. But when you go to your Badge Upgrades page, there doesn’t seem to be a way to switch things around. Don’t fret: There actually is a way to switch your badge to a different badge in the same category, if you’re having buyer’s regret.
First, you have to earn another badge in the same category as the one you want to switch. The four categories are Finishing, Shooting, Playmaking, and Defense / Rebounding. In the screenshot below, I’ve earned another badge in Defense / Rebounding, but I still have to assign it.
When you’re in this “assigning” phase, you can actually switch around and re-assign any of the badges you’ve earned in that specific category, not just the new badge you’ve earned. So in the screenshot above, I’ve selected my gold Pickpocket badge. I can press R2 to upgrade this badge to Hall of Fame level. Or, I can press L2 to downgrade this gold badge to silver or bronze, or take it away entirely, as I’ve done in the screenshot below.
I can then take these upgrades and assign them to completely new Defense / Rebounding badges, either by spreading them out or focusing on a single new one.
This only works if you have a new upgrade to apply. So if you want to switch around a Shooting badge? You have to earn another Shooting Upgrade before you can start mixing things around.
Last note: if you manage to earn all available badges in a single category, you can switch things around whenever you want, not just during the aforementioned “assigning phase.”
In the above screenshot, I earned the 2 available Playmaking upgrades. So because I’m maxed out, I can switch these badges to different Playmaking badges. or combine them into a single, silver Playmaking badge, at any point.
