With the regularly scheduled matchup of the Philadelphia 76ers and the Phoenix Suns postponed Friday due to the outbreak of COVID-19, the two teams decided to settle the game on the sticks.
Sixers rookie Matisse Thybulle and Suns guard Mikal Bridges played the game on NBA2K20 and they live-streamed it on twitch. Bridges got the best of Thybulle and he came away with a win for his Suns 75-64 and he exposed Thybulle as a bad 2K player.
Thybulle’s avatar on the game finished with a plus-minus of minus-17 and he had two turnovers while Bridges scored 15 points on 7-for-11 shooting playing as himself. Due to that fact, Bridges had to remind Thybulle that he is not very good at the game.
U did great @MatisseThybulle … dont worry about your stat line of 0/2/0 -17 wit 2 to’s !! Lol

Thybulle responded that he has to get back in the gym to get better at shooting. Of course, he will do so with nobody in the gym with him to practice social distancing.
Wooowwww…. It wasn't my night okay?? Chill. Imma get in the gym (with no one else around tho #SocialDistanacing) and come back better than ever! https://t.co/tzhpdlmWMk

Maybe the two of them will have a rematch at some point so Thybulle can get a second chance. [lawrence-related id=28389,28383,28374]
