How to earn Hall of Fame Badge?

Skill badges are categorized as Outside Scoring, Inside Scoring, Athleticism, Playmaking, Rebounding and Defensive badges. When a player performs well within his specialty, he unlocks stronger special abilities within his archetypes. You only have 5 upgradable badges for each archetype that can be upgraded to Hall of Fame. You can only get HoF badges on the badges that can be upgraded for your Archetype – i.e. as a playmaker, you can’t get HoF shooting badges. Before you can earn any Hall of Fame badge, you have to follow the steps listed below:

    You have to do it 4 times as many times as you did it the first time so if you have to get 25 corner threes for corner specialist. Then you have to get 100 corner threes for hall of fame
