NBA 2K22 Update 1.06 Patch Notes:

Par for the course, Visual Concepts has not released the patch notes just yet for today’s title update. However, the next-gen versions got a different set of patch notes for the update it got this week, which could include some of the changes rolled out today for last-gen given they are a few patch versions behind.
