Who should represent the Warriors in the players-only NBA 2K tournament?

What member of the Golden State Warriors has the best NBA 2K skills on the sticks?

Although the NBA is still on hold due to the coronavirus pandemic, a different form of the game will soon be available. To help feed basketball cravings, the NBA is getting creative.

Video games have been a popular time-filler during the NBA hiatus, and now players will have a chance to show off their skills for everyone to see.

According to Chris Haynes of Yahoo Sports, the league will host players- only NBA 2K20 tournament that will air live on ESPN over 10 days.

The NBA’s version of a March Madness tournament will have 16 entrants. Donovan Mitchell and former Warrior DeMarcus Cousins are expected to be behind their controllers for the event, according to Haynes.

With the full field yet to be set — who should represent the Golden State Warriors in the 2K showdown?

After a look into social media, Eric Paschall could be the favorite to handle the sticks for the Warriors. The second-round draft pick tweeted he “always dreamed” to be in the basketball video game.

Paschall is confident when it comes to his 2K skills. After an early-season loss to the Utah Jazz, the second-round draft pick mentioned the video game in his postgame press conference.

Via @957TheGame on Twitter:

I mean, if you put me in a chess game, put me in a Fortnite game, put me in a 2K game — I’m going to win.

Another factor swaying towards the favor of Paschall is the fact his 2K game is fresh. During the NBA’s hiatus, the Villanova product shared on Instagram that he was playing the game alongside Utah’s All-Star guard.

If a member of the Dubs wants to enter the contest, they’ll have to act fast. According to Haynes, the NBA want’s to launch the 2K tournament as soon as Friday.
