Phoenix Suns to play out rest of 2019-2020 NBA season by video game
TORONTO – The NBA may be on hiatus but the Phoenix Suns plan to complete their season via video game.
“The season isn’t over yet … We will continue to play the Suns season games on @NBA2K,” the Suns tweeted.
It will start Sunday with a virtual game against the Dallas Mavericks, one day behind the actual scheduled meeting. The game will be aired live on Twitch.
Asked if Raptors Uprising GC planned a similar video game season, a spokesman declined comment.
The NBA 2K League, the NBA’s esports partner with 23 teams participating, has delayed the March 24 start of its season because of the COVID-19 outbreak.
