NBA 2K league software: run your league on Discord
Free to set up · $20 a season when you go live
OVRWire is a website and Discord bot for running an NBA 2K league. A commissioner signs in with Discord, names the league, adds the teams and sends each team its link. Once the OVRWire bot is in the league's Discord server, players post the box-score screenshot in #box-scores the way they already do. OVRWire reads it and checks that the numbers add up. If a number doesn't, the player who posted it fixes it. In the regular season, once the poster checks it, it's final. Typed numbers go to the other team to confirm. Only final games count, and the standings, stats and game pages update on the league's own web address. Setup is free and private. Going live costs $20 per league-season, tax included, with no per-team fees, and the commissioner can refund it in the app within 7 days. OVRWire is independent and isn't affiliated with 2K, the NBA or Discord.
How it works
- Start a league in 2 steps: name it, choose how teams form and set the team count, then sign in with Discord and create it.
- In the Front Office, send each team its link, or import your teams and rosters.
- Connect your Discord server: Add OVRWire to my server, then Looks good.
- Pick your league nights and game times. OVRWire makes a balanced schedule into those slots. Check it, then publish it.
- When you're ready, go live for $20, or let a member chip in.
On game night
- Players post the box-score screenshot in #box-scores, or in the game's thread, the way they already do. Once connected, OVRWire checks the chosen channel for new screenshots. Or type /submit and attach the screenshot, or right-click the message and choose Apps → Send to OVRWire. OVRWire reads the screenshot. The poster checks the numbers and sends them, and if OVRWire can't read one, anyone on the team can type the numbers in.
- On the website, open the game and choose Post box score. Enter and check the result manually. If your league requires a screenshot, attach it before sending.
- OVRWire checks the math on every box score: each player's points match their shots, makes never beat attempts, the players add up to the TOTAL row, and the quarters add up to the final.
- Two different AI models read each screenshot: one reads the whole box score, and a second one checks the totals and the score.
- The other team's captain or co-captain confirms the box score or taps Something's wrong, before the deadline shown on the game.
- Only final games count. Standings, leaders, team pages and player pages update from them.

What's included
Setting up
- Set up your league for free. Add teams and rosters, then invite your captains. Your league stays private.
- Your first 3 games count in private before you pay.
- A captain link claims a team. It works once: whoever claims it first runs the team.
- The league link adds players to your available players list.
- Turn on applications to let people ask to join. You approve, waitlist or deny each one.
- Add a co-commissioner with their own link.
- If a player's gamertag is already in the league, OVRWire asks "Is this you?" so their games stay linked to them.
In your Discord server
- OVRWire never renames, moves, deletes or changes anything it didn't create.
- Finals post in #scores, the standings stay up to date in one message in #standings, and every game gets its own thread.
- OVRWire can give players their team's role and take it away when rosters change.
- Players can look things up with /standings, /schedule and /me.
Disputes, corrections and forfeits
- Tap Something's wrong, say what doesn't match, and add your numbers. The team that posted it can accept them. If it doesn't, the commissioner rules.
- Every decision and correction goes in the league log with a reason. A corrected game keeps every version, each with its reason.
- A commissioner can't decide a review of their own team's game.
- A team that shows up can claim a forfeit when the game offers that action. Check its conditions and the deadline to say it's wrong. Your league's rules determine the timing.
- OVRWire never invents points for a forfeit. A no-show is a win and a loss with no score.
Your league's pages
- Every league has its own web address, like ovrwire.com/night-owls-league.
- Once a season goes live, its pages are public. Completed seasons stay public as a free archive.
- Your gamertag is your public name. Your Discord name and avatar stay off public pages.
- Until a game is final, only league members see its numbers, and OVRWire's Discord posts show no numbers.
In the $20
- Going live makes your league's pages public, every game counts, standings and stats publish, and OVRWire posts to your Discord if you connect a server.
- No per-team or per-game fees.
- No add-ons. The only other charge is a second $20 for a regular season past 12 weeks and its 2 extra weeks.
Limits
- Built for the NBA 2K27 5v5 box score.
- OVRWire doesn't connect to your 2K account. It works from the box score your league posts.
- The reader can make mistakes. It fills in the numbers; people confirm them.
- OVRWire staff don't run your league or decide games. Your league's commissioner settles disputes and corrections, in public.
- OVRWire never holds league money. Dues, entry fees and prizes stay between your league and its members.
- Everyone signs in with Discord, and everyone must be 18 or older.
- To go live, a league needs at least 2 teams. Discord is recommended. Captains can submit box scores on the web without a connected server.
- One $20 covers 12 weeks of regular season for NBA 2K27, from the first processed game, plus 2 extra weeks to finish games. OVRWire warns you 2 weeks before week 12 ends, and a regular season past the 2 extra weeks needs another $20.
Questions
Does OVRWire work for NBA 2K27 Pro-Am and crew leagues?
Yes. OVRWire is built for 5v5 Pro-Am and crew leagues that run on Discord, and for the NBA 2K27 5v5 box score. Pick Community for light rules or Competitive for stricter ones. Change available settings in the Front Office. Some choices lock when the league goes live or the season starts; others lock after play begins.
How do the standings and stats update?
Only final games count. Standings, leaders, team pages and player pages update from them. The other team's captain or co-captain confirms the box score or taps Something's wrong, before the deadline shown on the game. In the regular season, a clean read that its poster checked is final right away, unless a warning needs a look or your commissioner reviews every game. The other team can still ask the commissioner for a review until the time shown on the game, and the score counts while it's checked. In the playoffs, it becomes final at the deadline shown on the game if nobody disputes it. Numbers someone typed in or changed never become final through silence: the other team confirms them, or the commissioner reviews the game.
How much does OVRWire cost?
$20 per league-season, tax included. You pay exactly $20. One price for the whole league, however many teams. About $1.67 a team in a 12-team league. Switching from another site? Your first season is $15 instead of $20. Check "We're switching from another site" before it goes live. Once per league. Set up your league for free. Add teams and rosters, then invite your captains. Your league stays private. Changed your mind? The commissioner can refund it in the app within 7 days. No reason needed, nobody to email.
Do players need to download an app?
No. OVRWire is a website built for phones. There's nothing to download. Players join with their team's link and sign in with Discord once. Their gamertag, exactly as it shows in 2K, is their public name in the league.
Is OVRWire made by 2K?
No. OVRWire is independent. It isn't affiliated with or endorsed by 2K, Take-Two, the NBA or Discord. OVRWire is run by OVRWire LLC in Springfield, Missouri.
