To sum up the video:

• Teams will progress through different tiers in Pro-Am based off rank.
• Your team gets rewarded more for beating a higher ranked team compared to a lower ranked team (beating a 10-2 team vs. beating a 5-6 team)
• You are limited to only 5 gold badges, all the rest are bronze.
• As your team ranks up in tiers, you unlock more stuff for your arena.
• As your rank up, you will gain sponsorships for your team.
• Full blown leaderboard, recording individual stats for each player on each team. Can "scout" other teams.
• Rep will be exclusive to Walk-on Pro-AM. You will not gain any for regular Pro-AM games.
• You can get to Walk-on Pro-AM games from the park.
• Teams can have a maximum 10-man roster.
• Can play without the owner.
• While you are waiting for a game, you will be in your home court warming up with your team as it searches to find another team to play against.

only thing missing from pro am is a direct matchmaking system. even if it was "unranked" and didnt count towards leveling up that would fine too.

but im extremely excited to get started!!

Commentary is what I've been waiting on confirmation about. In some senses, it not being brought up to anyone makes me think that it's probably not in this year but there's still the optimist in me that believes that since a lot of these features were aimed more towards the mode itself rather than gameplay, there's a chance that it just didn't get brought up.

Only five gold badges sounds epic !!

So when you pick your archetype under upgrade able badges those are the only ones that can be gold . You can still earn badges but they will only be bronze . I like that a lot .

If there are 10 roster spots, can you run one 2 teams of 5?
3 teams of 3
If the owner isn't around, 1 team of 4, another team of 5?

If you're not running with a full team of 5, will the blank spots be filled by NBA players like 2k11
OR random stuff like in 2k16?
