MyCourt in NBA 2K26 is your own private training space where you can practice skills, run drills, and even set up casual games. While it’s designed for solo practice, you don’t have to hoop alone. The game lets you invite friends—or even AI-controlled NBA players—to your MyCourt for scrimmages, pick-up games, or simple practice runs. If you’ve been struggling to figure out the invite system, this guide breaks it down step by step.

MyCourt is a personalized practice court available through MyCareer. Think of it as your home base—here, you can fine-tune your shooting, work on dribbling, or just hang out without the distractions of The Park or The City. Unlike other modes, MyCourt keeps things private and capped at six total players, including yourself, making it ideal for small matches or 1v1 duels.

Follow these steps to bring friends into your MyCourt session:
- Enter MyCourt
- From MyCareer, head into the building marked “MyCourt.” You’ll automatically load into your private court.

Inviting AI NBA Players
Don’t have friends online? No problem. From the same kiosk menu, you can invite AI NBA players. This lets you fill the court with stars from across the league for practice or challenges. It’s also a fun way to test your build against real-life player archetypes.
