Dear Hooper:
To ensure a better gaming experience, we will perform server maintenance from 00:00 to 04:00 (UTC-7) on October 22. Please note that during this period, you will be unable to log into the game.

[Maintenance Time]
From 00:00 to 04:00 on October 22 (UTC-7, estimated duration: 4 hours)
The opening time of the server may be adjusted depending on maintenance progress.

[Maintenance Compensation]
Diamond x300
The compensation will be sent via mail and will remain valid for 30 days.
Here are the details of this update:

[End of Season]
The "2025.08 - Holiday Pilgrimage" season is coming to an end. For Ranked, Dynasty, and 5v5 Full Court Run, rewards will be distributed based on the highest rank achieved by each Hooper in the season. The top 100 Hoopers in the Rank Leaderboard, Dynasty Leaderboard, 5v5 Leaderboard, Peak Points Leaderboard, as well as the Style Points Leaderboard, will also receive limited-time titles.
At the same time, the new "2025.10 - Halloween Carnival" season is about to begin. Hoopers will inherit their ranks from the previous season based on set rules, the details of which can be viewed in our official Discord server. In the new season, you can also unlock a new Celebration, "Rapper Gesture," by winning 50 Ranked games.

[Players]
1. Legendary star Rodman (PF) is coming! Rodman can be unlocked through the Legend Superstar Supply Crate (after the October 22 update).
- Rodman: An unmatched master in defense and rebounding. Rodman's tireless energy, uncanny court sense, and fierce competitive drive made him a constant menace on the court.
2. Superstar Westbrook (PG) is making his grand debut! After the October 22 update, Westbrook will be removed from Elite Player crates and all Star Player Choice Chests. You can now obtain Westbrook through the Current Superstar Supply Crate.
- Westbrook: A non-traditional point guard with fierce athleticism. He attacks the rim with explosive power, boasting large strides and exceptional hang time - rare traits for a point guard. He's a great rebounder and perimeter defender, but he remains an inconsistent shooter who will never, ever hesitate to launch his beloved pull-up J.
After Westbrook is promoted from Star Player to Superstar Player, his development costs (Training, Talent, Enhance) will be adjusted to match other Superstar Players.
Hoopers who owned Westbrook before the October 22 update will receive the reworkded Superstar Westbrook: 
- His Training Level and Enhance Level will be reset to 1, and his Talent Progress will be reset to 0. All resources spent on his progression (including any unused Enhance Cards) will be fully refunded to you via in-game mail. For the Enhance Reset, you will receive 6,000 Star Enhance Fragments for each level. This Talent reset will not use up any of your free reset chances (if you have any available).
- His Partners and their levels will remain unchanged.
- Some of his Achievement progress will be reset. However, any Achievement Points and rewards earned prior to the rework will not be deducted. For achievements that are not reset, you will receive compensation of Achievement Points via in-game mail to match the Superstar player standards.
- His Proficiency, Trophies, and all match stats will be retained.
3. Star player C.J. McCollum (SG) is coming! You can obtain McCollum through the Elite Player and Current Superstar Supply Crate (after the October 22 update).
- McCollum: A skilled combo guard with lethal scoring ability and superb ball-handling skills. He can easily tear through defenses to create opportunities.

4. New Partners:
- New Partners for Rodman: Qin Feilan, Mookie, Wild Danny
- New Partners for McCollum: Professor Kritch, Mason Plumlee, Pat Connaughton

5. From the October 22 update until November 5 at 00:00 (UTC-7), Rodman, Westbrook, and McCollum will be eligible for full Enhance Resets. After an Enhance Reset, 100% of Player Fragments/Star Player Fragments will be refunded.
