NBA LIVE Mobile player cards and rarities guide
Understand the five player rarities and build deeper lineups.
Overview
The rebuilt progression system uses five player rarities and is designed to give lineups more depth. Strong roster building is not only about collecting one high-rated starting five.
How it works
Different modes can require different lineups, and progression systems reward depth across positions and rarities. Live content regularly adds new versions of real NBA players.
Practical tips and limits
Compare role, attributes, rarity and lineup need before replacing a player. Keep enough depth for rarity-gated modes such as Court Clash.
