I remember staring at my progress bar after a comeback win, realizing one more game would hand me a guaranteed Galaxy Opal. You can feel the pulse — a reward timer, a choice: grind tonight or regret tomorrow. I’ll show you where to aim so every session counts.
All NBA 2K26 Season 5 Pass rewards and how to get them
I’ve watched players pause mid-game to check progress bars.
You’ve got two lanes here: the Free Pass (open to everyone) and the Pro Pass (paid, with extra loot). The Free side still hands out 80 rewards across tiers; the Pro side stacks additional premium packs, VC boosts, and that 100 OVR Draymond Green at the end. Across PlayStation, Xbox, and Steam the mechanics are the same — progression lives in MyCareer and MyTeam, and your XP carries between modes.
The rewards line up like a buffet: pick your plates, but some items are behind a velvet rope.

What rewards are in the NBA 2K26 Season 5 pass?
Short answer: everything from emotes, mascot bundles, and cosmetic items to high-tier cards (Galaxy Opal Jason Williams) and a 100 OVR Draymond Green on the Pro track. The table above is the master list — you can scan for the exact tier you’re chasing. If you play MyCareer, perks like Tiered ‘Max +1’ and accessory rep boosts matter; MyTeam players should eyeball Ascension Picks, MT, and rare player packs.
How do I earn Season Pass rewards in NBA 2K26?
XP moves the bar. Play MyCareer, run MyTeam matches, complete weekly challenges and objectives inside The City or neighborhood playlists. Progress is shared across modes, so I often grind one mode and still collect both streams of rewards. Watch for 2XP windows — those double your gains and slice grind time in half.
How to get all Season 5 Pass rewards in NBA 2K26
On any given night you’ll see players chasing 2XP timers like they’re concert tickets.
Here’s a tactical playbook I use and teach: play high-XP modes (REC, Run the Court, Domination in MyTeam), stack weekly objectives, and save skill boosts or 2XP coins for double-XP weekends. Use the Badge Elevator only when you can afford the cap breaker gains. If you’re on console, syncing sessions with friends in squads amplifies XP through team bonuses.
Is the Pro Pass worth buying?
If you value premium packs, guaranteed high-OVR rewards, and VC injections, the Pro Pass accelerates ROI. For many players the tipping point is the Pro-only 100 OVR Draymond Green and multiple high-tier premium packs. If you plan to invest hours this season, the Pro lane shortens the path to meta cards and cosmetic flexes.
Micro-tip: treat VC and MT gains as strategic resources — spend on badges and cap breaks that compound your XP earnings rather than one-off cosmetics.
Progress can be slow and then suddenly spike; progress feels like climbing a shifting staircase.
So which reward are you grinding toward first and why will it change how you play next session?
