Once done talking with ATM, turnaround and head over to all the shoes lined up. Look for the pair on the far end to receive a prompt asking to take a selfie with the AJ 32’s. Doing this unlocks the shoes for your character.
Pick a Jump Shot
You are probably pretty tempted to run to the court and start playing, but you may want to head to the practice court to choose a jump shot. Head on over to the ball machine to do this. I went with the Steph Curry shot as it appears to be one of the easier shots to time correctly.
Play in the Proving Grounds
When ready, make your way to the court to play some ball. Here you will play in three matches. The first two matches are just ‘regular’ 3v3 matches, while the third match is the Proving Ground’s final event. After completing all the matches, you will be approached by the scout of the NBA team you chose at the beginning of MyCareer.
