2K Sports ha pubblicato l'elenco di tracce che compongono la colonna sonora ufficiale di NBA 2K16, e com'era ovvio aspettarsi spaziano soprattutto tra Hip Hop, R&B e simili.
Le musiche sono suddivise in base alle selezioni da parte di vari DJ, spartendo dunque le 50 tracce in sei playlist preimpostate, con sei nuove tracce composte appositamente per il gioco. NBA 2K16 sarà disponibile il 29 settembre su PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Xbox One e Xbox 360.
