Good news for PC gamers as the NBA 2K15 PC version will be the same version as the next-gen editions of the game.
The NBA 2k15 PC version being the next get version of the game was confirmed in an interview with Polish site benchmark.pl, 2K executive producer Iain Willows confirmed that "The PC version of NBA 2K15 is now identical to the game on console." The interviewer confirmed that Willows was specifically relating to the PS4 and Xbox One version which means the PC edition will not be a port of the PS3 and Xbox 360 version of the game.
But that comes at a price because NBA 2k modding sites have been closing and a user from a well known 2k modding forum has said:
"Those sites were shut down because they were closed by 2k themselves. Something about copyright. Plus they were distributing cracks of the game. It won't be long until every 2K modding site will be shut down"

"We know there's a huge passion for basketball in Europe, and we're excited to further expand the number of playable European teams to make this the most comprehensive basketball game ever."
"After an exciting start last year, our partnership with 2K takes another strong step forward with an expansion of the Euroleague Basketball teams in NBA 2K15," added Jordi Bertomeu, President and CEO of Euroleague Basketball. "The appeal of our style of basketball to video game fans was evident right away with just 14 Euroleague Basketball teams last year, and we are sure that seeing many more of them in NBA 2K15 will be another hit."
