It was the first of three consecutive NBA 2K games to be produced with licensing from ESPN (however, the ESPN logo would not appear on the front cover until the series' next installment). The ESPN licensing coincided with its, and sister network ABC's, takeover of the national broadcast TV rights from NBC that occurred at the start of the 2002–03 season. It was also the last NBA 2K game to be released on a Nintendo platform until NBA 2K10.
