MANILA, Philippines – The NBA 2K Players Tournament came off the wraps on Saturday, April 4, as 16 of the best players in the league vie for basketball supremacy in the virtual world.
Among the stars competing in the week-long tournament are Brooklyn Nets forward Kevin Durant, Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young, Utah Jazz guard Donovan Mitchell, and DeMarcus Cousins.
The tournament follows a single-elimination format in the first two rounds, while the semifinals and finals will be best-of-three clashes, with the last player standing winning $100,000 for his chosen charity.
