Supposedly it's an issue with the port. Specifically it has something to do with NBA 2K20, but they're looking into it.
From the sounds of it, it's leftover code from other platforms which seem to do some kind of in-game updating.
I expect it to get silently patched out.
@Trainz It's a known issue and Google is currently working on a fix with the publisher. I'm sure we'll hear it here or from their social media channels when the issue is fixed.
