Basketball runs in the family of Los Angeles Lakers forward Kyle Kuzma.
His younger brother Andre Smith, though, has found his niche in the virtual form of the game through NBA 2K.
Smith, who goes by the name “AlwayzDre” in the game, is one of the 265 players seeking to hear their names called in the NBA 2K League Draft slated on Saturday, March 13 (Sunday, March 14, Manila time).
It will be a nerve-racking draft for Smith as only 63 players will be picked, with the 23 NBA 2K League teams all looking to complete their respective six-man rosters.
Lakers Gaming, the 2K League affiliate of the defending NBA champions, will pick first followed by Pacers Gaming and GenG Tigers of Shanghai.
The draft this year features a record 33 international players, including those from Asian countries like Singapore and China.
