Basic requirements
To unlock your grand badge there are requirements needed to fulfill in order to unlock the grand badge for your archetype, before you scroll down to check your requirements, or if there is something you've done and it is not working, you need to make sure:
  • You played 10 non simmed games in 1 season with the stat requirements
  • Your player needs to have an rating of atleast 86 overall.

If you meet the requirements, then you are ready. Do note that grand badges only activates by how you dominate the games, that means for example if you are sharpshooter you cannot go dunk everytime and expect to activate your grand badge, you need to hit deep mid-ranges or 3s consistently.
