After building your MyPlayer and setting his attributes in NBA 2K26, you can use Cap Breakers to further exceed those limits. With a maximum of five boosts applicable for each attribute and the massive impact they can have on any build, these are naturally difficult to acquire in the game.

This guide is all about how to get the 28 Cap Breakers in NBA 2K26.

Crew Rewards

Crew Level 8 = 1 Cap Breaker

Crew Level 15 = 1 Cap Breaker

Crew Level 22 = 1 Cap Breaker

Crew Level 30 = 1 Cap Breaker

Total = 4 Cap Breakers

REP Rewards

Rookie V = 1 Cap Breaker

Starter III = 1 Cap Breaker

Starter V = 3 Cap Breakers

Veteran II = 3 Cap Breakers

Legend I = 3 Cap Breakers

Total = 11 Cap Breakers

Lifetime Challenges

100 Completions = 1 Cap Breaker

200 Completions = 1 Cap Breaker

Total = 2 Cap Breakers

Miscellaneous

Specialization Rewards = 2 Cap Breakers

Level 40 Season Rewards = 9 Cap Breakers

Total = 11 Cap Breakers

Reap the benefits of being in a crew as soon as possible for maximum efficiency. The early REP rewards and Lifetime Challenges will probably be the first Cap Breakers you acquire. The latter half of REP rewards are likely the hardest to achieve for casual players, and total Cap Breakers from that category will max out at 5 for most.

The Level 40 Season reward tally is unconfirmed and is simply based on the fact that the current season awards you a single Cap Breaker, with another eight seasons expected.

Those are all the ways to unlock Cap Breakers in NBA 2K26.
