Gamers can try to acquire these newest cards through the Rewards Market using tokens. In addition, they may be available at the Auction House, but they’ll cost a pretty decent amount of tokens or currency based on the latest going rates. Still, if you can afford any of these, adding them to a team can help you win those tough competitions on the virtual courts online.
NBA 2K19 MyTeam Throwback Elites Cards: Wizards, Blazers
The Washington Wizards and Portland Trail Blazers are the team themes for the newest Throwback Elites. Among the player cards now available for MyTeam are a 92 Caron Butler, a 95 Arvydas Sabonis, and a 96 Phil Chenier. The latter of these cards is a Pink Diamond and drew plenty of “Who?” comments on Twitter when it was announced. Some gamers were hoping for a Wes Unseld type card instead, or maybe even a Michael Jordan Wizards Throwback.
However, Chenier is an absolute throwback to before the team was known as the Washington Wizards. He was a member of the franchise back when they were the Capital, Maryland, and Washington Bullets from 1971 through 1980. Chenier had career numbers during his years with the squad including averages of 48.3 percent shooting and 21.9 points per game. For his career, he averaged 17.2 points, 3.6 rebounds, three assists, and 1.6 steals per contest.
