2K Sports has released a new update for NBA 2K21 that patches the game to version 1.04. Here are the details for this update including patch notes.
As it is the case with most of the updates to the game, the latest patch is a massive download as reported by some users on the Xbox One. This can lead to a download size that is over 70 GB on the Xbox One. While this might sound massive, it could be due to an issue with how the game updates on the console and related to how some files get corrupted during installation.
