As you can see, with the April 20 Agenda drop, 2K has started to require cards from the Play-In Tournament Agenda Set. If you haven’t completed these, make sure to do so quickly to get yourself prepped for what could come over the course of this event. You can find the Agenda requirements in the Lifetime Agenda section of the Agenda menu.

With the first round over, 2K has moved on to the Conference Semifinals. If you want to complete those challenges, we already know you’ll need to have finished this Agenda set, as the first set of challenges includes Jordan Poole’s reward card. Make sure to get after it, if you want to stay current with the promo. We also aren’t sure if this Agenda Challenge will ever expire, but it is listed under Lifetime Agendas. Those generally don’t expire though there have been exceptions. For that reason, we again recommend you complete these as they come out.
