The NBA season might be on a bit of a hiatus, but we’ll get to see the Suns and Thunder square off in a virtual battle on Wednesday night.
According to the Arizona Sports 98.7FM out West, Phoenix Cardinals running back Chase Edmonds will lock virtual horns with the Miami Dolphins’ Shaq Lawson. In a world where we don’t have real-life games to watch, the NBA 2K20 version of the matchup might be the next best thing.
The NBA itself has partnered with the NBPA and 2K sports to have a virtual tournament featuring real NBA stars, and it appears that Thunder fans will have the opportunity to see their squad in action as represented by Lawson, as well.
We've got an #AllAZ crossover tonight!@ChaseEdmonds22 will swap out jump cuts for jump shots vs @Shaq_Lawson90 on @NBA2K! 🎮
