Visual Concepts have added a way to discourage bad sportsmanship in NBA 2K22. Quitting the game will get you a bad sportsmanship warning in the game.

Answering the above question, no, you cannot remove or dismiss bad sportsmanship warning message in NBA 2K22. The message is treated as a “time-out” and cannot be closed. However, it will automatically disappear after fifteen minutes. Sometimes, it may take up to an hour. Some players are reporting that the warning message never goes: this sounds like a glitch. There are a few floating suggestions to the issue, however, most of them won’t work. Even if you restart the game, there’s a huge chance the message will pop up again. It is like a temporary ban. As suggested by a user on Reddit, you can try starting a MyCAREER match. Doing so sometimes works and gets rid of the bad sportsmanship message.
